"The magic system is fascinating and very well crafted. This is quite an epic saga, and surprisingly political. There are factions, and back biting, plenty of twists and turns, violence and bloodshed – everything epic fantasy fans enjoy." www.bookwormblues.net Arcane magic can be a ruinous power, despite admirable intentions. A mysterious scroll finds its way into Lord Severun’s hands, enabling him to release a dangerous experiment upon Wesson. With Sergeant Falchion unable to forgive himself for aiding the wizard, and desperate factions taking advantage of the devastating aftermath, Falchion embarks on an arduous quest alongside friends and strangers alike. However, even if their attempt to seek aid is successful and the city is saved, they risk revealing a secret that threatens much more than Wesson alone. From a fantasy world not too dissimilar to our own dark and bloody histories, the beginning of an epic tale is told. Incredible magic is unleashed, allies become enemies; unlikely friendships are forged, and a foul plot is discovered that will shatter the long lasting peace of Altoln and her allies, plunging them into a gritty, brutal conflict that falls far from the fluffy fairytales of old.** Views: 23

Their quest is all that stands between Ar and an eternal nightmare of tyranny. Den of Thieves! Falon slid next to the bandit. His precious cape was draped loosely over the thief’s shoulders. He swiped at the cape, catching it in his claws. Then he snatched up the bandit’s sword. “Now!” he yelled at Caissir. The wizard skidded on some spilled wine, and Falon had to jerk him to his feet. The cape trailed behind him, a brilliant flag drawing the unwanted attention of whole tables of bandits. Some of them started stumbling to their feet. “Move, Caissir! Get your fat mrem tail moving!” Falon turned to look over his shoulder. A blade was flying at him, a long, heavy blade thrown with the deadly expertise of a practiced brigand. No more than an arm’s length away, and aimed perfectly at the center of his chest ... Views: 23

**About the Author
E.H. Reinhard was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He's worked in sales in one form or another for the better part of eighteen years. Previous nine-to-fives include retail management, the auto industry, operating a small business, and running an assortment of entertainment websites that generated tens of millions of page views per month. Reinhard currently has one completed thriller series, the Lieutenant Kane Series, which follows the life on and off duty of a fictional Tampa homicide lieutenant--though if the stories were reality, I think anyone who worked law enforcement and encountered what Kane did would be turning in their resignation. Throughout the story arc of the six-book series, you see Lieutenant Kane go toe-to-toe with some of the most twisted, homicidal, and downright ruthless adversaries imaginable, all while doing his best to juggle his often-turbulent personal life. Reinhard's current work in progress is the Hank Rawlings Series. Hank is pulled from the Lieutenant Kane Series and dropped in a new city and new position--agent in the FBI's serial crimes homicide division. Hank's new job description is simple: track down serial killers and bring them to justice. Hank's work will find him face to face with the most dangerous and demented people to ever walk the earth. Reinhard now resides in sunny Tampa, Florida. When not putting pen to paper, or keys to keyboard, writing thrillers, he is an avid fisherman. So naturally, moving to the fishing capital of the world was a good fit. If you're looking for him, he can usually be found on a boat, canoe, or casting from shore Views: 23
