Who hears the bells of war, now tolling o'er the Fringe?

Adessa Halatine has always lived under watchful, protective eyes. But when she dares to undergo a forbidden ritual—one that will either turn her into a monster or a wizard—she wrests fate from the gods to forge her own path, one that few walk and fewer still survive.

Cawper Thalaxander, brutally conscripted into an unwanted military life, makes the same harrowing choice.

Meanwhile, monstrous forces are gathering at the blood-stained gates of Castle Severcal—the once-impregnable keystone of the Brink. Hardened battle mages lie dead, assassinated in their sleep. Demons rise, summoned from the pit. And now the survival of Lavalor and all of Kharkief rests on two impulsive strangers whose burgeoning magic is inexplicably … broken.

Their mission is simple, though far from easy—Adessa and Cawper must defeat the Troix Multitude. But when an unstoppable force encounters an immovable object, the victor is never certain.

Like stepping through a portal, The Gods of Lavalor plunges readers into a rich, old-school fantasy saga of meddlesome gods, dangerous prophecies, and the rising weight of unreliable destiny. As the final battle begins, survival demands more than power—it demands sacrifice. But from whom?

KEEP OUT if you hate bragging, biting, burping—or insulting wizards.
