About this series
With their dying breath, the Prae’surlas would breathe glory to their god. But their god is dead, their usurper defeated, their sanctuary desecrated, and their homes burned beneath a demon’s flame. Godless and lost, the Prae’surlas are a broken people and they are about to be invaded by the Fureath’i hordes. The barbarians of Furea march with the sole desire to burn every last Prae’surlas to cinder and ash, but Surlas is a land of Demi-gods who stand ready to defend, Demi-gods such as the mad Iceborn: Frind’aal, the former Champion Above.
Griffil and Krife are in Mordengrav, far away from the Fureath’i war, and safe in the capital city of the great Mordec Empire; but the empire is not safe from them. Death and destruction follow these two thieves wherever they travel, having already brought ruin to Amidon City and the Thorann Web, and while it might appear that Krife and Griffil are only interested in hunting treasure and spending it on whores, there are powers in the Mordec Empire who know better than to allow these two to wander free.
And then there’s Lord Thisian Flameborn, who’s not allowed to wander anywhere anymore, free or otherwise. Enrolled within the Amalgamation of Sorcerers, Thisian feels he has become trapped in that damned tower, tricked into his situation by a sexy witch. Torn between trying to learn magical powers (which he’s already bloody got) and helping Zavi breach a new world of power (which he wants nothing the rut to do with), Thisian laments his old life as a Fureath’i, and almost considers adding his power to help with the war against Surlas. After all, he is an almighty Flameborn – possibly the most handsome and powerful one that’s ever existed. He’ll have to think about it though, and until then, someone else will just have to fight that flaming war for him. Maybe Frehep will do it; he never bloody does anything else.
The sun god sees you, Surlas, and he sees you burning in a war of flames.
Titles in the series (3)
- Fireborn
1
The world of power is turning to ice... and when its keeper, the great Amadis Yeda disappears, armies of magic begin to war, creatures of darkness come into the light, gods walk among men, nations plunge into chaos, and the lives of four friends are changed forever: Kris, a warrior who struggles not to kill every man, woman and child he meets, is sent to stop the new tyrant, Aerath, from turning the world to ice. Thisian, a man who loves only gold, women and himself, takes advantage of the new found freedom a world without order has created. Phira, the youngest and only female general her nation has ever known, is on a mission to uncover the secret behind Aerath’s new power and how to stop his oncoming armies. And Dallid, a man who has spent his life among those far greater than him, is given all the power of the gods. He must struggle with the responsibility cast on him, he must show the world what strength of flesh and heart can be when a mortal man is given limitless power. He must show the world what it is to be Fireborn.
- Masks of Moi'dan
2
Moi’dan the Masked once ruled half the world, in a time when the gods had been slain and all magic banished with them. When the heavens were breached to create a new age of gods, Moi’dan was betrayed and destroyed, but did not die. His life was fractured into nine lesser lives, and his masks of power lost. Amadis has always been more than a Powerborn and less than a god. He is the fractured memory of Moi’dan, and he will do anything to return to that power. But whenever a tyrant seeks to build his empire on the deaths of innocents, there will be those that rise to stop him: Kris, a man who has survived things that no fleshborn should, overcomes the weakness of flesh through the strength of his will. He uses that will to keep from slaying every man, woman, and child that he meets, but he will gladly unleash all darkness that dwells within him to kill Amadis. Thisian, who wants nothing to bloody do with Amadis, or Kris, or any other lunatic that might want to kill him, but he will fight when he must. He is Powerborn, a Fureath’i Flameborn with the blood of gods running through his veins, and he uses this might to travel with thieves, to hunt for gold, and to bed as many women as he possibly can. And Phira, the first female blaze commander of thousands, the slayer of gods, the wielder of the Jaguar blade, the woman who killed the Iceborn Aerath and who has now set her sights firmly on ridding the world of Amadis. If any think to get in her way... may they all die screaming.
