Book Description
Chivalry is not dead. It exists in another realm. Influenced by an enigmatic monk, Mira Ellwerth, the Chosen One of Excelter, is placed on a path that will lead to her destiny. She is invited to reside in Lockharst Castle by the elderly wizard, Sylas Mervinstone, so that he may unravel the meaning of her recurring visions. Disruptive events cause Mervinstone and Ellwerth to form a military unit to safeguard the surrounding villages of Scotwold. Brandon Chadler, a Favored One appointed by the Excelter Council, is placed in command. His close friendship with Neil Zutherlan is put to the test by the incomparable and unpredictable Mira, whose complex character and unstable emotions range as far as bolts delivered from her sorcerer's crossbow. There's plenty of action and intrigue in this romantic/fantasy/adventure novel! Romantic liaisons change at a moment's notice as young men of Scotwold lay claim upon their territorial women. Mystic illusions conjured by Mira and Mervinstone emerge throughout the story. Fantastic creatures abound due to Lockharst's enthused Biology/DNA professor who takes his research to the far reaches of the imagination; from saber-toothed lions that lurk in the far western region, to creepy crawlies that proliferate in the Black Woodland. The underlying mystery of where Brandon's father, Allen, concealed the artifacts of Excelter is solved, unleashing a chain of events yet to come in this new series by S. D. Verlindau, entitled, 'Knights of Excelter'.

Pages : 379
Book Description
“Superior to anything being written in the genre . . . Terry Brooks is one of a handful of fantasy writers whose work consistently meets the highest literary standards.”—Rocky Mountain News Eight centuries ago the first Knight of the Word was commissioned to combat the demonic evil of the Void. Now that daunting legacy has passed to John Ross—along with powerful magic and the knowledge that his actions are all that stand between a living hell and humanity's future. Then, after decades of service to the Word, an unspeakable act of violence shatters John Ross's weary faith. Haunted by guilt, he turns his back on his dread gift, settling down to build a normal life, untroubled by demons and nightmares. But a fallen Knight makes a tempting prize for the Void, which could bend the Knight's magic to its own evil ends. And once the demons on Ross's trail track him to Seattle, neither he nor anyone close to him will be safe. His only hope is Nest Freemark, a college student who wields an extraordinary magic all her own. Five years earlier, Ross had aided Nest when the future of humanity rested upon her choice between Word and Void. Now Nest must return the favor. She must restore Ross's faith, or his life—and hers—will be forfeit . . . “[An] urban dark fantasy . . . Sharp and satisfying.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
