Description
When Rhada, High Protector of Kaena, is commanded by the King to travel north to investigate a suspicious disturbance, she is less than thrilled to spend over a month on the road.
As her companion, she chooses Captain Mayvard Stoneward, the only person who can bear her company. The two of them set off on a journey that will forever change their lives- a journey where Rhada’s past seems to follow her everywhere she goes- a past that the people of the realm have not so easily forgotten.
Meanwhile, Lord Ivran Cassius has plans to overthrow the throne, and at his side is the entire realm, eager to rid themselves of the man who calls himself King. Rhada’s absence leaves King Firion vulnerable, and Lord Ivran only needs to find the right moment to strike.
But none of them are expecting the darkness that has gathered in the north- an ancient sorcerer, seemingly returned from the dead. He is a man who can raise the dead from their graves and control the minds of his prey- a man desperately seeking vengeance.
The realm of Kaena will have to come together to fight this new evil, and only one person can save them all.

"Some books are emotional rollercoasters taking you high and low through the story. I found this book to be more of an unstoppable thrilling ride without the lulls in the action that I have come to expect from this genre." -Kevin

I was really puzzled reading this book, I couldn't make out which characters I was supposed to like and which ones were supposed to be the bad guys. I found the world building very effective and atmospheric and I looked out the next book in the series to continue on
Treachery, treason, and betrayal go hand in hand in a realm where no one trust anymore and the greedy seeks more power. The realm was besieged by the emerging darkness of evil, one so terrible it turns the living into zombies by first consuming them inside out. Men and women with their deceitful ways have been led to their own destruction at the hand of the enemy all because their minds were weak and easily manipulated by the enemy. An intense gripping and gruesome tale filled with blood-curdling screams, yet one cannot resist its compelling pages.

It was a great Fantasy story! Well written with vivid characters and world.
