    Black Friar Quest Series

    About this series

    In some forests, leaves aren't the only things that are dead.

     

    Finally, Shane reaches the Moonarch Hills, where his friend and mentor, Othor, had told him to seek out Sarbetha. It's here that he'll finally be able to learn more about the Black Friars and where he can find them. Then, it's on to rescue Talia from their clutches.

     

    Only, it turns out that Sarbetha has no desire to be disturbed. Not by anyone and not for any reason. And she has an army of the dead to enforce her wishes.

    Shane won't leave without some answers, though, and he defies the witch, exploring the forest, along with his constant companion, Gramlin, and the woman he's falling more in love with every day, Marilee.

     

    What they discover may be the answers Shane seeks. Or it may only lead to even more questions and more danger.

     

    One thing is certain though. . . for the first time, Shane finds evidence that the Black Friars are real.

     

    Or does he?

      Silent as shadows, dark as night…. It was the only way to describe the Black Friars, who must have been the ones to kidnap Talia from their otherwise peaceful village. . . even if no one has ever actually seen them before. Shane is determined to retrieve the missing girl, his best friend since childhood, but since he's never left the security of Farmingham himself, he doesn't have the slightest idea of where to begin. Based on the instructions from his mentor, Othor, he heads toward the place where all great adventures begin: the fabled Gray Friar Inn. From there, Shane embarks upon his quest in the company of the roguish Gramlin, eager to pursue the Black Friars and rescue his dearest friend, but can Shane manage to navigate the pitfalls and obstacles that Fate, and a rather mischievous demon, throw his way? Will he ever find Talia, and, if he does, will he be able to save her from the villainous Black Friars? The journey is long, the adventure great, and the peril all-too-real. It's going to be an epic tale. Black Friar Quest: Book One

      Doors that can't be seen, and a man without a face. . .   Those are just two of the things that Shane and his friends encounter at Bethun's Academy of Stagecraft and Mummery. Which wasn't exactly on the agenda of Shane's quest to find the mysterious Black Friars and rescue his friend Talia from their clutches.   Ugrudor and the Hollow Lands behind them, Shane and Gramlin escort the beautiful Marilee to Mossberg, so that she can pursue her life-long dream of becoming an actress. But when faced with Marilee's imminent departure, Shane realizes how much he's grown to care for her. Unfortunately, having a demon sharing his head isn't ideal for intimate moments. . .   Soon, he finds himself writing a play and chasing a faceless man through the halls of the acting school. Then he needs to do his own running—from a sorceress who's determined to banish Mergos back to Hell.   Things turn serious when a new friend goes missing and get even more dire when only a small piece of her turns back up.   Shane never wanted to be involved in the theater. He just wanted Marilee to be happy and to continue his own quest. But now, he must solve this new mystery before either of those things can happen.   Black Friar Quest: Book Two
