About this ebook

Alan Feralis, half dark elf and half human, elemental wizard and son of a knight, has been called upon by the elves, his most hated of enemies, to undertake a dangerous mission. He must travel to adistant mountain to awaken an ancient wizard sleeping for thousands of years in his tomb, because only such a wizard can fight the necromancer who has once more returned to the world. Meanwhile the entire world awaits the arrival of the necromancer's armies and the end of all life if he is not defeated.

It seemed like such a simple task at first, for a powerful elemental wizard like Alan. Simply go to the mountain where he hope an ancient lay sleeping, send in his elemental servants, and have them tap on a an ancient wizard's tomb. Such a very simple, if dangerous task.

But then things are seldom as simple as they appear. He never expected to awaken an entire family of ancient wizards, and after that thousands more. He never expected to have to do battle with the armies of the undead.

And above all else, he never expected for the dragons to get involved.

Greg Curtis

Greg Curtis is the name of a hopelessly boring, middle class, sci fi loving nerd. He was born in New Zealand, land of the long white cloud and small flightless birds and grew up in the city of Wellington, renown for its high winds and the almost magical ability of rain and sleet to be lifted off the street and blasted into one's face. After eighteen years of suffering the cold and wet, he was finally blown away in a particularly bad storm to settle far away as a student at Massey and Otago Universities. He was intered there for more years then most would ever admit to. Then when the universities finally pronounced him done he became an overqualified and underpaid worker in the health sector - aren't we all! Greg has lived in the city of Rotorua, one of the very few places in the world where people have actually chosen to reside beside active geysers and breath air that reeks of sulphur, for the past seventeen years, working by day for his daily bread, and toiling away by night on his books. When not engaged in his great passions of reading and writing science fiction and fantasy, drinking strong black coffee (some call it tar), and consuming copious amounts of chocolate (dark naturally), he lives a quiet life of contemplation as the high priest to his two cats. Greg worships them with regular gifts of food, occasional grooming and by providing them with a warm dry place to sleep. They in turn look down upon him with typical feline disdain, but occasionally deign to bring him gifts of headless vermin - as a warning. In a desperate bid to understand the meaning of his life, he has recently started studying philosophy, particularly metaphysics, and has finally come to a startling conclusion. God must be a cat! Cheers and be good or don't get caught.
