We all have darkness in our pasts - now imagine yours has returned with swords drawn, forcing you to lead a fellowship of outcasts and confront unearthly horrors just to spare those you love from the brink of oblivion. When ex-soldier John's gambling debts embroil his family in a treacherous quest, he assembles a fellowship from his dark past-a cunning human, stalwart dwarf, fierce elven huntress, and twin Namites, jackal-headed warriors from a distant desert land. Bound by brotherhood forged through the calamities of war, they dare to pursue fabled treasure stolen by a legendary sea beast. Braving untold dangers on land and sea, John's eclectic band of battle-hardened rogues must work as one to outwit ruthless brigands and monstrous jungle horrors in their drive to settle John's score. But as deception and betrayal threaten to tear the team apart, only their unwavering camaraderie can conquer the challenges ahead. In this epic tale brimming with magic, mythic monsters, rip-roaring action, and sprawling world-building, one man's debt holds dire implications, forcing him to lead his team of damaged heroes on a breakneck chase that will either end a lifelong curse... or destroy everything he holds dear. Will John's specters of war demand more from him than he can give?
Autorenporträt
CHRISTOPHER T. PARSONS is an elementary school teacher with twenty-eight years of experience. With a masters degree in Elementary Education, he has worked extensively teaching all age groups, and his dramatic background has made him an expert communicator. Christopher's theatrical skills have helped him to make learning engaging and exciting, and they've also allowed him to cross cultural barriers. For many years, he taught overseas in Thailand. Christopher's life in Thailand was a wonderful time. It was there he met his husband, Niddy, and their beloved Korean Jindo dog, Rufus. As Christopher was already a nurturing person, his beautiful surroundings fueled his passion for the natural world. His experiences looking after Rufus have made him an advocate for rescuing animals. He encourages people not to buy pets but to adopt instead, since there are many who are already without homes. Christopher realized that creating children's books was the perfect way to combine all of his passions. Through his writing, he hopes to educate young people, instilling them with a lifelong love of dogs and promoting the power of kindness. These days, Christopher, Niddy and Rufus live in Middlesex County, MA. When he isn't busy teaching and writing, he's also the co-owner and general manager of a Thai restaurant!
