Orion: Wager of Battle
“I’d been having weird dreams for months. In the dreams, I had amazing powers… I was dangerous… I hunted people who could use magic…”
“I hunted and killed them… these dreams scared me.”
- Harry Tasker/ Orion
Wager of Battle
There are those among us who believe they are answerable to no-one, and recognise no other resolution except the chance of arms.
The 15th Century
The English Achilles - Sir John of Arundel carved a bloody path through the French in the Hundred Years War. Closer to home, no witch or wizard was safe from Warder, his vengeful blade.
The evil warlock Gwidion hunts for a mystical book that will give him the edge in his battle with the wizard Magister.
Victoria Talbot and her sisters are rescued from Gwidion’s henchmen by a brave young woodsman in the forest near their home. But the warlock is relentless…
The 21st Century
Sir John reaches out from beyond the grave, across the centuries and into the dreams of Harry Tasker.
A meteor falls to Earth. In the aftermath, people develop super-powers. Superhumans with cool names like ‘Sapphire’ and ‘Ogre’.
Their lives are thrown into chaos when they are all swept into the conflict between the two powerful spellcasters that stretches across centuries and continents.
When dreams become real, they are no longer your dreams.

About the author
Peter Diggins
8 books9 followersI was born and raised in Hobart, Tasmania (yes, where the devils are from).
I’m spending a brief tenure on Earth before I head off to another planet. I haven’t yet decided which one.
For now, I live on Earth.
I write stories (I make stuff up and write it down).
I read a lot.
I also played and coached cricket. The stories of my past cricketing achievements are usually my best fiction works.
I've written a few books, but now I've unpublished them and am re-releasing them! I’ve become a much better writer and I’ve been given an opportunity to redo these books, to present them as I would have liked to have done them originally.
In my spare time, I love jogging, bushwalking, and playing the guitar and bass guitar badly.
