New York Times bestselling author and acclaimed video game writer Drew
Karpyshyn returns with the second novel in an original epic fantasy
series--perfect for fans of Terry Goodkind, Peter V. Brett, and Brandon
Sanderson--about four young people who will either save the world or
bring about its destruction.
The Children of Fire--four mortals touched by the power of Chaos--each
embody one aspect of a banished and fallen immortal champion: Keegan,
the wizard; Scythe, the warrior; Cassandra, the prophet; Vaaler, the
king. Now grown to adulthood, the Children are in search of the ancient
Talismans that can stop the return of Daemron the Slayer, ancient enemy
of the Old Gods. But in acquiring Daemron's Ring, they've left in their
wake death, destruction, and a queen bent on revenge.
For the discovery of the Talismans has unleashed a flood of Chaos magic
on the land--and now their strength will be tested and their faith tried
as never before. Beset on all sides by both mortal and supernatural
enemies, they race to find Daemron's Sword, the last of the ancient
Talismans, before the entire mortal world is engulfed in the flames of
war and Chaos that will herald the return of the Slayer.
