This is an epic adventure of a book.
Will was told to run by his mother just before she was killed. Now he has been found. Not just from the bad guys, but by the ones that want to stop darkness from happening.
In a time before anyone can remember there was a fight for everything. Good Vs Evil, Light Vs Dark. The light side only just overpowered the Dark King, but before he died, he vowed to return. The Light has kept vigil through the ages.
Now the Dark King is ready to rise. The Stewards of the Light prepare for battle, and Will must decide what to do. Run or fight.
This story does not disappoint. There is action, adventure, romance, friendship, bravery, death. It takes a bit to get to what happened in the past, but it weaves beautifully into the present (1821).
This is the first of the series.
