Bleeding Light, Prophecy of Hope Book 3 by Sarah Kennedy

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

In the latest volume of the award-winning Prophecy of Hope Saga, an empty throne, fallen crown and broke scepter are all that remains of the great Empire of Light. From Nudhug to Armahad, the marked bones of the Caladrius kings have all been stripped of their promise, and crumbled into dust. But one remains. the despotic heir, Liacin Caladrius, has given himself wholly to Sgarrwrath, the ancient evil cursed long ago to formless darkness, for promises of power beyond that of any man before. Yet Sgarrwrath cares little for the man held in his thrall, he desires only to wield Liacin and the bloodline he embodies. A bloodline tied to a prophecy as old time. Sgarrwrath has spent millenia trying to overcome his curse, one stolen piece of life at a time, and the prophecy forever telling his doom. His ultimate prize is none other than the one who cursed him so long ago, Mhorag, the Living Flame, one of the Everliving. With Liacin and his bloodline of prophecy, Sgarrwrath hovers upon the brink of world-wide dominion. Yet when flame falls from the sky and the Markless Son bears the Golden Brand, Sgarrwrath finds himself facing his highest desire and his greatest fear, as all who behold the signs know that the true Promised King has come but not in the way they expect. As the prophecy has long foretold, hope is divided like the flame. By some twist of fate, Mhorag has come down into a world of darkness and has taken an unexpected form. The form of a child, robed not in the glorious flame of the Everliving but in vulnerable, human flesh, in the womb of Sian Seela. Why? That is the question that plagues Sgarrwrath as together he and Liacin seek to claim the Promised, setting their focus upon the infant conceived by mysterious circumstances. In some ways, Mhorag seems diminished and yet Sgarrwrath can still sense too much life, power– everything he has ever desired and more, and suddenly Mhorag appears to be in reach. Sgarrwrath seeks to take the child before he can be born upon the earth but something stands in his way. Both a prophecy and a curse. Others also look to the child. To protect him. To serve him. To worship him. Soon, the battle lines of a timeless war are redrawn, this time upon the earth, held in the terrible grip of Sgarrwrath’s own dark soul.

Targeted Age Group:: Teens and up

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
Bleeding Light is a continuation of a series. The series came about from characters I have been writing about for most of my life. I started writing them as a child during a particularly difficult season in my family as we faced my brother Isaac's drug addiction. The series, in its published form, came out of that when following Isaac's sudden death in what has become known as our country's ongoing Opioid Crisis, I wrote my first novel, Sgarrwrath, Prequel to the Prophecy of Hope, as part of my grieving process. Sgarrwrath is a character I never named as a child. He was there in the darkness and pain but he never found his voice until after Isaac's death, and without Sgarrwrath there would be no series. Bleeding Light, Prophecy of Hope Book 3 is simply the next part of the planned series of interconnected stories.

The Old Universe by Forbidden Origins

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

-Star Wars meets The Lord of the Rings in this debut epic fantasy about a universe before our own caught in the middle of a war led by a son who finally wishes for freedom across the cosmos.-

No one knows where the Spears came from, but they do know that the Spears of Time and Space created the universe. They know that The All Father yields the Spear of Space. They know that his planetary kingdom looms over every star, every galaxy, and every world-casting a shadow of fear and servitude. They know that serving The Black Palace is a matter of life or death.

Corrin knows this as well. Being a herald for The All Father has made him into a symbol of war and anguish. Devastation always follows when Corrin enters a planet’s atmosphere sporting The Black Palace banner. But to Corrin, enough is enough.

As rebellion against The All Father breaks loose across the universe, Corrin begins to fight an internal battle of who he is and what future the Spears have in store for him. War against The All Father seems unimaginable, but Corrin knows that if nothing changes, chaos is inevitable.

The Old Universe launches an epic, gut wrenching, and powerful series that takes readers on a journey back to witness the beginning of the end.

Targeted Age Group:: 16 and above

Verge of Darkness by Ollie Odebunmi

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

Casca is no hero. He would rather run his tavern, while indulging in his pastime of poring over ancient manuscripts. But a dark shadow hovers over him, for his bloodline has been burdened with the task of protecting the land from the evil of soul eaters dismissed as nothing more than myth by many. Drunken tales told in taverns.

They were wrong. The soul eaters return after the barrier between worlds falls, leaving horrific death and desolation in their wake. Casca must face up to responsibilities he is ill-equipped to bear, as the land teeters on the edge of ruin.

But the threads of fate weave, drawing three mighty warriors into the maelstrom.
Pagan, a wanderer from the furthest corner of the world, seeking redemption for a gruesome act of vengeance committed in his youth. Moon, a one-eyed giant axeman from the frozen north, and Liang, an ice-cold swordswoman from the eastern continent.

With their very souls at stake, and forced to face their deepest darkest fears, the four must battle to save the land from sliding into a new age of darkness.

Targeted Age Group:: 21+

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
I grew up as a big fantasy fan with ambitions to emulate authors such as Karl Edward Wagner, Raymond E Feist and David Gemmell. But it was a scary prospect, so I settled for writing a book on boxing – The Last Great Heavyweights-from Ali & Frazier to Lewis & Tyson. The book was well-received, persuading me I had the chops to be a writer, so I took the plunge and wrote Verge of Darkness.

Bothvar Beorcolsson
Through fire and ice I will fight to find honor. Whether it be giants or creatures of the night, I’ll fight. Pain is my comfort, and sorrow is my companion. Death follows wherever I go. Even the sun hides from my sight.

Bothvar they call me. My journey isn’t an easy one. It follows a long and broken road full of the bones of those who I couldn’t save and those who got in my way. My blades are soaked in the blood of my enemies, but my heart is left in shattered pieces, broken by the costs of my actions. All for what? Honor? Glory? I don’t know anymore.

Maybe I have gained honor, but all I have to show for it is pain. yet I must carry on. I must earn my place among the halls of the gods so I can see my loved ones again. That is why I carry on to fight again. And I will not stop until I am reunited with them.

Whether it be giants or the gods themselves, I will always fight on.
Lura Syllana
I will do whatever it takes to save my family. Afterall, it is my fault they were enslaved. If I had only listened to my father. If I heeded his words and did what was right instead of what was easy they wouldn’t have had to pay for my mistakes with their freedom. Now it is up to me to do whatever it takes to find a way to free them.

Even if it means sacrificing myself and my own freedom. I don’t care what happens to me. I’ll gladly pay any price to save them.

Of course, I said that, but I had no idea what was going to be asked of me. What price I’d have to pay. I didn’t know what I’d have to do to save them. Even so, I’d sacrifice everything to see them free. Even my own freedom. Even my own soul. Which I will soon find out is the very price I must pay.

—

Join Bothvar and Lura as they go through pain and sorrow and climb mountains and cross seas, all to save and protect the ones they love. Follow their journey as they discover true love, honor, and glory.

Broken Souls is a Dark Fantasy with a bit of romance. It’s inspired by Viking culture, but it is no way an accurate portrayal of historical Viking culture. It takes place within a fantasy world that’s heavily influenced by ancient mythology and lore of many different cultures among other things. That being said, this book contains some pretty graphic and controversial topics such as slavery, sexual assault, death, war, violence, blood, mental health, drug addiction, and many other controversial topics. This novel includes The Bound Soul and The Damaged Soul which makes up the first third of the book.

The Darwath Series: The Time of the Dark, The Walls of Air, and The Armies of Daylight by Barbara Hambly

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

From a New York Times–bestselling author, three novels of a modern-day medievalist beset by murder and magic—“A fabulously talented writer” (Charlaine Harris).

As a student of medieval history, Gil Patterson is a woman familiar with dark stories. She knows the Crusades, the Black Death, and the other horrors of the Middle Ages all too well, but it is another kind of atrocity that has begun to haunt her dreams. She sees forces of evil assaulting a beleaguered kingdom, whose kind people are on the brink of annihilation, and awakes each morning in a cold sweat. In The Time of the Dark, Gil dismisses the dreams until a wizard appears in her apartment. He has crossed into her dimension, passing through the fraying fabric of the universe, to ask her help. For mankind to survive he must protect an infant prince, whom he plans to hide in Gil’s world. She is about to get much closer to evil than she ever imagined. In The Walls of Air and The Armies of Daylight, Gil and Rudy know the world is no longer safe and there is nowhere to hide from the Dark. Since the Dark Ones returned, the world has been laid to waste. The land’s wizards have been slaughtered, its cities destroyed, and its people scattered in terror. Few have witnessed more of the destruction than Gil and Rudy, and both of them will need all their strength to survive this final challenge. Ingold, the master wizard, has devised a spell to hide the user from the deathly stare of the Dark, and he intends to use it to strike at their very heart. Finally, Gil, Rudy, and the rest of mankind’s survivors will take the offensive, bringing an end to this terrible war, for better or for worse.

Mordew (Mordew Trilogy Book 1) by Alex Pheby

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

Alex Pheby’s Mordew launches an astonishingly inventive epic fantasy trilogy.

God is dead, his corpse hidden in the catacombs beneath Mordew.

In the slums of the sea-battered city, a young boy called Nathan Treeves lives with his parents, eking out a meagre existence by picking treasures from the Living Mud and the half-formed, short-lived creatures it spawns. Until one day his desperate mother sells him to the mysterious Master of Mordew.

The Master derives his magical power from feeding on the corpse of God. But Nathan, despite his fear and lowly station, has his own strength—and it is greater than the Master has ever known. Great enough to destroy everything the Master has built. If only Nathan can discover how to use it.

So it is that the Master begins to scheme against him—and Nathan has to fight his way through the betrayals, secrets, and vendettas of the city where God was murdered, and darkness reigns.

At the Publisher’s request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Llandry’s destiny cannot be denied. A shy young woman is about to learn that sometimes, even the most far-fetched story might prove to be the plain, simple truth.

Fortune Favors the Cruel (Dark Maji Book 1) by Kel Carpenter

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

Throne of Glass meets Black Jewels in this twisted yet alluring dark fantasy tale.

Quinn Darkova, freed from the chains of slavery, wants nothing more than vengeance against those who sold her. But with her dark powers on the rise and her ascension nearing, Quinn’s blood retribution will have to wait in favor of her immediate survival.

Lazarus Fierté is a nobleman without equal. He’s as controlling as he is stubborn, and for the last six years he’s been waiting for a woman to appear—but not just any woman. A Maji of great power, capable of terrible things. She could be the key to everything he holds dear.

His savior … or his destroyer.

The only thing he didn’t predict was that she would become both.

*Please note, this is a dark fantasy series. There is a heavy romance subplot between two consenting adults but the material is dark in nature. The characters are not heroes. This isn’t a story about saving the day.*

Dragonlands, Books 1 – 3: Hidden, Hunted, and Retribution by Megg Jensen

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

USA Today Best-seller!

Enter the world of Dragonlands with the first three novels from this bestselling epic fantasy series.

Includes:

Hidden:
The mystery enshrouding Hutton’s Bridge is as impenetrable as the fog that descended at its borders eighty years ago. Each year, three villagers enter the mist searching for answers. No one ever returns.

Then a dragon falls from the sky to the town square, dead—the first glimpse of an outside world that has become nothing more than a fairy tale to Hutton’s Bridge. Except to Tressa.

Tressa grew up with Granna’s stories of the days before the fog fell. When Granna dies, leaving Tressa without any family, Tressa ventures into the fog herself, vowing to unravel the foul magic holding Hutton’s Bridge captive.

What she discovers beyond the fog endangers the lives of everyone she loves.

Hunted:
The fog that trapped the people of Hutton’s Bridge for eighty years has disappeared, but now so have the villagers.

Fearing the worst, Tressa and Bastian must navigate a new and dangerous world in search of their people. Among their allies are a healer, a warrior, and even a dragon–but their enemies are far greater.

Hutton’s Bridge has long protected a powerful secret, one the dragonlords will kill to control. As the realms rise, Tressa and Bastian risk everything to save their people, until one must make the ultimate sacrifice.

Retribution:
Tensions are mounting in the Dragonlands. The dragon hordes are mustering, each with its own agenda. But Tressa must conquer her personal demons before answering the call to war.

Gravely ill, her body undergoing mysterious and frightening changes, she travels to a distant land for the answers crucial to her survival. What she discovers rocks her to the core.

As the battle begins, a long-slumbering magic–dark, powerful, and brutal–awakens. And Tressa learns the ones you love most can become your greatest enemies of all.

Knights: The Eye of Divinity (The Knights Series Book 1) by Robert E. Keller

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

Strange and legendary Dremlock Kingdom is facing destruction from both within and beyond its stone walls in the form of goblins–creatures spawned by evil that come in all shapes and sizes–and the Deep Shadow, a hungry and spreading force of dark sorcery that infects people with madness.

To save their kingdom, the knights recruit a lonely and isolated boy named Lannon who lives in a wooded valley with his crazy father, who bears a dark illness of the soul, and his foul-tempered mother. Lannon is sought out because he possesses a rare power called the Eye of Divinity. The knights need Lannon’s gift to see through the fog of evil that shrouds Dremlock Kingdom and give them the advantage they need to turn the tables on their ancient foe.

With the help of his friends, Lannon tries desperately to unlock the Eye of Divinity in time to save Dremlock Kingdom from otherwise certain doom. With the Deep Shadow creeping around the kingdom and infecting hearts and minds, Lannon isn’t sure if anyone in Dremlock can even be trusted. Lannon finds himself, and his fellow squires, caught in a web of mystery and magic in a kingdom where anything can happen.

AUTHOR’S BACKGROUND: Robert E. Keller has published more than 30 fantasy short stories in online and print magazines as well as several epic fantasy novels. He lives in Northern Michigan with his wife Tracy and his two children.

The Darkness That Comes Before: The Prince of Nothing, Book One by R. Scott Bakker

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

Strikingly original in its conception, ambitious in scope, with characters engrossingly and vividly drawn, the first book in R. Scott Bakker’s Prince of Nothing series creates a remarkable world from whole cloth-its language and classes of people, its cities, religions, mysteries, taboos, and rituals-the kind of all-embracing universe Tolkien and Herbert created unforgettably in the epic fantasies The Lord of the Rings and Dune. It’s a world scarred by an apocalyptic past, evoking a time both two thousand years past and two thousand years into the future, as untold thousands gather for a crusade. Among them, two men and two women are ensnared by a mysterious traveler, Anasûrimbor Kellhus—part warrior, part philosopher, part sorcerous, charismatic presence—from lands long thought dead. The Darkness That Comes Before is a history of this great holy war, and like all histories, the survivors write its conclusion.

The Farseer Trilogy (3 book series) by Robin Hobb

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

From Book 1: A gorgeously illustrated anniversary edition of the book that launched the epic Farseer Trilogy, praised by George R. R. Martin as “fantasy as it ought to be written” and Lin-Manuel Miranda as “an incredible series,” featuring a new foreword by Robin Hobb and ten illustrations.

Twenty-five years ago, Robin Hobb’s first novel featuring FitzChivalry Farseer and his mysterious, often maddening friend the Fool struck like a bolt of brilliant lightning. Thus began a beloved saga spanning multiple series, full of adventure, magic, and sinister plots. To celebrate a quarter-century of wonder, this special edition of Assassin’s Apprentice presents a modern classic as it’s never been seen before: in hardcover, with ten beautiful illustrations by Magali Villeneuve.

Young Fitz is the bastard son of the noble Prince Chivalry, raised in the shadow of the royal court by his father’s gruff stableman. He is treated as an outcast by all the royalty except the devious King Shrewd, who has him secretly tutored in the arts of the assassin. For in Fitz’s blood runs the magic Skill—and the darker knowledge of a child raised with the stable hounds and rejected by his family.

As barbarous raiders ravage the coasts, Fitz is growing to manhood. Soon he will face his first dangerous, soul-shattering mission. And though some regard him as a threat to the throne, he may just be the key to the survival of the kingdom.
