An epic adventure intended for adult fans of Lord of the Rings, a Song of Ice and Fire, with a touch of Belgarion meets The wheel of Time. In book one, embark on a thrilling adventure with Arazan, the Elder of the People of Men, as he journeys to meet Kuthlazun the Disgraced at the treacherous Rocky Isle. Alongside Sandlian general Amkos, Arazan must overcome numerous obstacles to uncover the Evil's plan for dominion over the five Kins of the Continent. Their quest revolves around finding the Crown of Palrad, an ancient artifact with the power to grant omnipotence to its bearer.
But their journey is fraught with danger and conflict, including a societal brawl and a battle between traders and the army, all while a parentless man is imprisoned by Giants of the Ring Mountains in his attempt to rescue a family. Amidst all these challenges, the fate of the Kins and their existence is at stake, and Arazan must find a way to bring them together to prevent evil from triumphing.
Filled with romance, humor, and conspiracy, this epic fantasy series takes readers on a journey into a fantastical world with fictitious Kins organized according to Plato's Republic. But beyond the adventure, the series also delves into the pressing issues of our world today, including social inequality and environmental destruction, and encourages readers to consider how life should be, instead of just accepting how it is now.
Join Arazan and his companions on this exhilarating adventure, and discover the power of fantasy to bring about real emotions and inspire change.
