Acerca de esta escucha
“I will be free! The chains of the old celestial gods cannot hold me. You will free me. I will bestow on you power unseen by mortals since the reign of Abaddon. The nemerons have my ancient books and I have cut a deal with their draconic rulers. They will give you the books if you help them destroy the empire. The emperor and his family must die, and their death will bring about the Eighth age, an age reminiscent of the dawn when gods walked the earth.
"You must ensure that the assassins get close to the emperor and his family, the rest will be up to fate, my champion.
“I have an idea mistress, one that will fit your needs. The emperor will call a tournament, the games will be the reason for all to come to the capital, a perfect place to hide assassins. I have pawns I can use to bring this about."
When the tournament is announced the northerners, protectorate of the empire, join in the festivities and the competition, but are quickly drawn into a complex world of political intrigue, secret alliances, magic and inevitable bloody mayhem. Sinister and supernatural forces seep through the gossamer of social order where loyalties are tested, and even the most gentlest of souls are forced to find their inner warrior.
An epic fantasy story that takes you at breath-taking pace on a journey into a fantastic world.

For countless millennia, the dwarves of the have defended the stone gateway into Girdlegard. Many and varied foes have hurled themselves against the portal and died attempting to breach it. No man or beast has ever succeeded. Until now...Abandoned as a child, Tungdil the blacksmith labors contentedly in the land of Ionandar, the only dwarf in a kingdom of men. Although he does not want for friends, Tungdil is very much aware that he is alone - indeed, he has not so much as set eyes on another dwarf. But all that is about to change.

For 2,000 years, magic has been outlawed, repressed, even outright destroyed throughout the world of Ehrde. By law, Angst is reduced to using his great power only to file papers. But without warning, Unsel is besieged with dangerous monsters - birds with metallic beaks, monkey creatures that can dive through solid ground, mindless horse-eating giants. The world that shunned magic now turns to Angst for help, and he is happy to listen once his back stops hurting. On the edge of a midlife crisis, Angst drags his reluctant friends along with him on an adventure into the heart of magic.
