Bloodmark: An Epic Fantasy Sword and Highland Magic, Paperback

Blood has been spilled. War has begun.

And the power behind the darkness rises with only banished traitors to stop it.

The nation of Alrou-Mendera reels, the throne usurped by the villainous Khehemni. But Kingsman Elohl and his sister Olea have kept the Queen alive, helping her escape to safety.

As the Khehemni rally the nation into a vicious war, Olea is spirited away to a desert oasis, learning the truth about their unstoppable ancient magic.

As Olea is hunted in the desert, Elohl must race against time to become the Queen's ambassador - and find aid before a ruthless slaughter begins.
