<p>Long ago the Eldric mysteriously disappeared from the land, shortly after the Krell Wars, Drachar&#39;s shade was finally banished from the world. Perhaps they believed the threat was gone, but they took with them sorcery, the only effective means of defeating demons. Then came the Prophecy and only one thing is certain, Drachar&#39;s shade will one day return. Against this backdrop three men seek what became of the Eldric. Vastra, recklessly ambitious and driven by greed for power, harbours a secret which he is prepared to kill to protect. His companions, Kaplyn and Lars have their own reasons for helping, but who will succeed? Vastra seeks an Eldric talisman and the journey is fraught with peril. There are clear signs that demons are once again seeking souls. None of the men realise the train of events they are about to set in motion will affect three worlds. All will not be as it seems. One man will betray them and yet salvation will come from an unlikely source...</p>

The Prophecy Of The Kings Book 1: Legacy Of The Eldric

Vastra has dealt a cruel blow to the very men that befriended him, but even he cannot predict the outcome of his betrayal. Armies threaten Thrace and an alliance must be forged but Trosgarth has been busy and which nations can be trusted is in doubt. Friend is set against friend whilst the enemy, no one believes exists, quietly awaits the outcome. The prophecy predicts a king will save them, but for many years monarchs have been assassinated so few if any remain. In a cold summer, after years of famine, war will finally be joined. But who will fight who? People will turn to the Prophecy for salvation. Demons will be summoned and fear will haunt Thrace and its people will be isolated, their moral shattered. Hope will come, but is it a fools hope...? http://prophecyofthekings.com/

The Prophecy Of The Kings Book 2: Dragon Rider

The threat from Trosgarth is growing, betrayal is in the air. The Priests of Ryoch are no longer a minor faction and their ranks now include warrior priests with empathic powers. Armies march to war and the balance is no longer in the favour of the allies, for without the Eldric and their sorcery they cannot hope to win. Desperate to redress the balance a new power will be sought. Kaplyn's nightmares are plagued by dragons and his fear of them has driven him from Thrace, seeking the truth behind an image, shown to him by Astalus the Court Wizard. Vastra is alive and if that is true then the enemy has a crystal from the tree of life and can open a permanent gateway between the worlds. They will be able to summon demons and no one will be able to oppose them. Kaplyn will be driven to the very brink of despair, having touched a kara-stone he has awoken the link with his Shaol and madness threatens his fragile hold on reality. http://prophecyofthekings.com/

The Prophecy Of The Kings Book 3: Shadow Of The Demon

The fate of three worlds are intertwined, that of men, dragons and demons. The time is fast approaching when the fabric separating the worlds will be thin enough for demons to cross the divide once again, but the people are largely ignorant of this, preferring forgetfulness rather than confronting their fears. The Eldric, saviours of previous wars, have mysteriously disappeared from the world, leaving behind crumbling ruins. Vastra, recklessly ambitious and driven by greed for power, seeks an Eldric talisman and recruits Kaplyn and Lars to help. Together they unravel an ancient secret that could doom them all. The evil that is Trosgarth is spreading across the land, monarchs are slain to deny the Prophecy from coming to pass, Priest of Ryoch are trained to communicate via their Shaols (their guardian spirits), while grakyn and krell gather in the remote regions of the world. As yet the drums of war beat quietly but all too soon they will call for all out war and who then will be ready?

The Prophecy of the Kings Trilogy

Vastra is a man possessed. Where other men require food to sustain them, his craving is for power. He seeks an Eldric talisman, ensnaring two men to aid him. Fate guides his hand and, unwittingly, he chooses Kaplyn, who is seeking to escape his own destiny and Lars, shipwrecked and friendless, an outcast on the Allund shore. An unlikely trio, they form a fragile alliance but, recklessly ambitious, Vastra will betray them in a heartbeat. Throughout their travels, there are clear signs that demons are active, stealing souls to slake their hunger. Their journey takes them to a mysterious tower, beset by traps, where Kaplyn triggers a chain of events unleashing the full power of a prophecy that could doom them all. Deep in the heart of a mountain lays a power that not even Vastra has the audacity to envision. But who really is guiding Vastra's destiny? Kaplyn has the talisman and, for all of Vastra's threats, he is unwilling to part with it.

Prophecy of the Kings - Book 1

<p>Armies are gathering but Astalus, the Thracian court wizard, is in a quandary. Shocking news has arrived from an unlikely source. A spy, arrested brazenly entering the city, claims to be a prince from a royal household that was overthrown, the family members murdered over sixty years ago. Intriguingly, the spy's claim to be from Allund is more than a coincidence, for the army marching against them is also from Allund. Who indeed to trust? The stranger brings with him news of an army from Trosgarth, which can only mean one thing. Drachar's shade has been summoned and the Prophecy is coming to pass. Old alliances are broken and many monarchs slain. No sign yet exists of the king predicted by the Prophecy, who will save them all. Astalus, normally so certain and confident, is suddenly plummeted into his worst nightmare, for soon Thrace could be threatened by demons and, against them, there is no salvation. In a land fraught with betrayal, fear and death, the shadows are deepening.</p>
