Description
“Jim Melvin shows his literary mastery as he weaves elements of potential and transformation.” —Ann Allen, The Charlotte Observer
A storm is coming. Magic stirs. And darkness is done waiting.
In Volume 2 of The Death Wizard Chronicles, the world of Triken descends into chaos. Magic awakens with fury. The shadows no longer whisper — they roar.
Torg, a Death-Knower who draws power from death itself, stands against this surge of evil. By his side is Laylah, sister to the ruthless sorcerer Invictus. Laylah and Torg are hunted by monsters and haunted by secrets too ancient to name.
Wars loom. The monstrous general Mala gathers his armies. And as the realm unravels, only broken heroes remain.
So begins a journey featuring cursed cities, titanic dragons, ancient druids, and shapeshifters born of myth — a relentless ride through magic, madness, and the raw will to survive.
If you crave the rich world-building of The Lord of the Rings, the explosive tension of Mistborn, and the relentless grit of The Wheel of Time, this is your next obsession.
"For the seasoned fantasy fan craving something fierce and different, this hits like thunder." —Literary Titan
