The Dark Necromancer | Book Two of TALES OF THE AMULET

The search for the Keepers of Truth and Might have set into motion events that herald the return of Hemran'na. His harbinger, The Unspoken One, has awoken and shown himself to the Faithful of Cherisium. Elsewhere, secret societies band together and powerful wielders of necromancy conspire, all while ancient texts detailing the whereabouts of the Crimson Eye resurface.

Haunted by the written words of Dusel Nadim, Cornar Dol'shir leads the survivors of his adventuring band from Dalgilur. What he thought was a final venture now seems a greater quest that could decide the fate of Kalda.

After fleeing Mindolarn, Iltar the Son of Adrin laments the tragedy which befell him and his acolytes at the empire's palace. Marked for death by the Mindolarnians, Iltar must find a way to keep himself and his pupils safe. But no place, not his homeland nor an island long forgotten, is beyond the empire's reach-not even the Translucent Fields of Vabenack.

Meanwhile, a sinister plot brews within the Principality of Sororth; aristocrats have been assassinated or abducted. Many blame the Baron of Sereth, whose ambition knows no bounds. Among those who have vanished is the husband of Countess Elsia Scurn. Determined to discover the truth, she will not rest until the count is found and civil unrest is abated.

Tales of the Amulet:

Several millennia ago, a war raged between the factions of dragonkind. With their world ravaged, the Kaldean Alliance forged the Amulet of Draconic Control and the Tethering Stone, and banished their foes to other realms, saving Kalda from utter destruction. Fearing the power of the Amulet, the survivors secreted it away. But now knowledge of the Amulet has resurfaced - and in the wrong hands, war could erupt anew.
