Jorn

Power of Nine #2

by R.M. Dorn

“Jorn, I have to tell you, there is nothing normal about the way your mind works. Or indeed mine. The colours show you’ve the potential to work magic.” Just an ordinary boy with extraordinary abilities... Jorn grows up with his foster family and learns to weave tapestries. But he is quite unaware of two vital facts. He has the ability to work magic, and he is not fully human. His mind is a fusion of colours. So many that he has to put them into a box in his mind to think clearly. To Jorn, this is normal, and something he suspects everyone has to do. To Mages of the Dwarran Realm, this is a sign of a Master of Nine. They know the alien mage Darric is hunting for the Tools of Power. Weapons that will devastate Earth. Only a Master of Nine can wield the magic needed to stop him. Jorn is catapulted into a race against time to master his powers. He leaves his home to join the Mages and train. But what no-one suspects is that Darric is aware of their every move. A traitor is amongst them... Will Jorn be able to complete his quest? Or will Darric attack before he can reach his destiny? To become the next Master of Nine. Jorn is overflowing with magical energy to keep you entranced until the last page. Praise for R.M.

About the author

Hi,

I've been writing fiction for about ten years, and have had enormous fun!

That fact that my readers enjoy my stories means a lot to me - no point in writing if there is no audience. Do tell your friends.

I love fantasy, and my stories are influenced by my interest in myths and the history if magic.

The sense that there is another 'somewhere', a secret world, fractionally removed from our own, that you might enter by magic, accident, or chance, is very compelling.

I'm in the process of making a change of genre into historical fiction, and hope to have a new book out soon.
