Sword Saints, mortals of such great power many say they are only second to the gods themselves. Many say they are just figments given life by drunkards and bitter beaten Kings. But the wise know that they are as real as winter's chill. Melias is one of the legendary Sword Saints, a title he did not seek. Tasked by the Queen for secret missions, Melias' latest target is a friend of the same title. Usually, his job has a no questions policy, but now he has to question where his loyalties lie. Revenge and blood have made Yuna Gaedal flee the safety of her Queendom walls to hunt down her parents' killer. But this princess will learn that killing isn't as pretty or simple as she initially thought. To Shu Salson the Sword Saints were heroes of epic proportions and he has dreamed to become one of them. While traveling to the whereabouts of his estranged father he comes across one of the Sword Saints and this makes him ecstatic, but soon he realizes they are nothing like he expected. The lives of these three are threaded by the invisible yarn of Fate. Spinning a tale of courage, love, revenge and tough sacrifices, Book 1 of The Swordsman Saga is a novel that catalogs a series of catastrophes and the lengths one must go to save their country and their world.

Welcome to the twin worlds of Ramnor and Rimnor: lush, beautiful, and magical. They are also the center of the Maker's universe, the cornerstone on which all of Creation is built. If one, or both are destroyed, then Creation itself will begin to unravel. And destruction of those worlds is the goal of the Lords of the Abyss, masters of the shadows that haunt the edges of Reality. To that end, they long ago gathered a vast army of demonspawn and made their war on Reality, defeated at the last possible moment by an alliance of mortal races and by the hand of the Creator themselves. Despite their defeat, the Lords have not given up trying to destroy all of Reality. And now, tens of thousands of years after their initial defeat, they once again threaten to destroy everything that ever was. Except this time even fewer will stand against them. And they themselves don't even know who they are, and what they are fated to do. Can this meager handful discover their destiny before it's too late and all of Reality dies in demon fire? Join heroes from the Humans, the Elves, the centaur-like Quada, the cat-like Muraan, and the fish-like Picea as they learn of their fates and struggle against the vanguard of evil that threatens to wash them away in the first book of the Sons of Ironstorm Chronicles, 'Griffon's Rise'. I hope you enjoy.
