Synopsis
At stake is everything. The fate of the prisoners who are awaiting to be sold into slavery rests in the hands of the deadly knights. Specifically, two girls who were attacked in Missalia and are now orphaned, are at the mercy of the sadistic King. Will Merlin and his band of knights be able to rescue them in time? Adele, the older sister, has plans of her own for escape. Will she prove successful or will her plans be foiled? If she is caught, what will become of her and her sister, Sylvia?
Dante, a boy from Coifen, is also now orphaned. He is the sole survivor of a brutal attack on his family. An unlikely heroine has come to his rescue- a mysterious white wolf. Unfortunately, the attack has left him blind. He and his guardian make their refuge in a remote cave. He clings desperately to the hope that God has spared him for a reason. Every night he goes to bed, he says a prayer to his talisman, the Merlin, a game piece that his father gave him before he was forced to abandon him. It was the last gift he received before all hell broke loose. Will he be rescued? Will he find a permanent haven? His fate also lies in the hands of the Merlin.
Merlin and his troupe lead the Visi-Gauls in a high stakes game of cat and mouse. Jason, though capricious, is not stupid. He uses every means at his disposal to eliminate Merlin. Who will prove the victor? Fighting a severe war of attrition, it seems at times that Jason will inevitably win; but don't count the Merlin out. He is beyond slippery. Every time it seems that Jason has the gifted knight, he is thwarted yet again. The jaw-dropping confrontation will leave you breathless!
About the Author
Rory D Nelson has a window cleaning business in Northern California and lives with his two dogs, Cupcake and Ruger. He has only been writing his series for about four years, but it is his greatest passion. For most of his life, he never had aspirations of writing and pursuing a career as a writer. With the launch of his enthralling series, he hopes to make the complete transition in the next couple of years. For most of his life, he has held menial and dead end jobs. Some of them though were quite unusual. He was a nude house cleaner at one time. He also worked as a roofer, framer, fast-food worker, maintenance man, janitor, waiter, security guard and a host of other go-nowhere positions too numerous to name. This work is the culmination of his greatest passion.
