What was the War of the Best? Why did the War of the Best begin after the Ethereal Wizard Taddeum Kling passed away, the only magical human being that ever lived on Earth? In this adult fiction intergalactic medieval sci-fi fantasy novel covering the conclusion to the century-long war known as the War of the Best, we follow the Lucent of the Round, Lucent Yudell Eshclep, the wielder of the Warpbringer Longswords, eight magically enchanted longswords stored in four scabbards, working in essential roles as the War of the Best comes to an end.
The biggest and most important moments of how the War of the Best began and ended happen during this novel, and Lucent Yudell Eshclep is consistently at the centre of most of them. While the majority of The Plight of Midnight takes place in the medieval European sci-fi fantasy setting of Volthun, based upon Great Britain, a sizeable amount of the novel also seamlessly takes place in the medieval African sci-fi fantasy setting of Sandatosia, based upon Igboland, and the medieval Asian sci-fi fantasy setting of Zaranova, based upon Japan, incorporating unique forms of dialogue, British-inspired, Igbo-inspired, and Japanese-inspired cultural environments, and essential plotlines to the concluding War of the Best.
The story can get very medieval with vivid horror elements, but it can also be extraordinarily humorous in certain moments, creating an all-encompassing, rich adult fiction intergalactic medieval sci-fi fantasy novel that reads in an incredibly exhilarating capacity. The Plight of Midnight is Peter Azuogu's debut novel, and is the adult fiction intergalactic medieval sci-fi fantasy novel detailing the full conclusion to the century-long War of the Best. Written in the tradition of World War II Centennial Remembrance, The Plight of Midnight is the very first story of its kind and involves all aspects of the science fiction and fantasy genres while incorporating authentically diverse storytelling like never before.
