Lee H. Haywood - 2018

The Gods and Kings Chronicles box set includes: A Wizard's Dark Dominion The Guardian The Guardian Stone When Demetry, a promising young wizard at Taper Academy, discovers a fire-damaged book hidden in the headmaster’s study, he can hardly believe his luck. The book contains the original teachings of the gods, spells and enchantments that grant men the power to manipulate the elements and bring life to the inanimate. Ignorant of the consequences, Demetry delves into the book’s dark arts. But when he fails to control the book’s most treacherous spell, it sets off a deadly chain of events that leads to war, the fall of kingdoms, and the reemergence of gods long thought dead. What Reviewers are saying: "It's dark, intense, and character-driven. The setting is full-to-bursting with palpable magic and struggle. And if I say much else, I think I'll be giving far too much away. Like most good books, it's best discovered for yourself." "A dark take on the old sword and sorcery genre that is refreshing and doesn't irk you with tired clichés. Read it now!" "Can't wait to see what's next. Worth the price of admission and then some."
