It all leads to this...
Book Seven, Against the Alliance - last in the current Forging of a Knight series.
Draft is finally done and soon to be in the expert hands of Erin Potter, editor beyond editors! That also means an awesome cover from Lora Lee to follow...!
The storyline has been building to this end...
Book One - Qualtan travels to become a knight.
Book Two - Qualtan fulfills his dream, joining the Order of the Bearded Lion, the knights of Turinthia, and encounters Darksiege for the first time.
Book Three - Qualtan transcends his role, from knight to hero, alongside the Arch-Mages and the heroes of the School against the forces of Shaz, leader of Those That Stand in Shadow, within a prison planet forged by angels.
Book Four - The cracks begin to tell - Qualtan grows more at odds with his King, and when his closest friend Glaive goes missing and his request to search for him is refused, the knight goes anyway, against his King's wishes. In doing so, he encounters the technology-using elves known as the Dokahlfar and their dwarf minions the Vartahlfar, as well as befriending and allying with a rag-tag group of orcnes, the hated foes of the Alliance.
Book Five - Qualtan becomes a traitor, leaving his Order and King, on the run in forbidden love with a Kubare', to find the cure for her evil before it overwhelms them both.
Book Six - An epic battle against Darksiege and a betraying wizard from the School coincides with Qualtan's decision to create his own Order bereft of any King or Queen, and to bring the orcnes he had forged a friendship with to the School, his new home, much to his former King's dismay.
And now we are here - Book Seven - Despite warnings from the Kings of the Alliance and the elves of Hermstingle, Qualtan moves forward with his Order, prompting war against his former allies. Only one thing can save them all: for Qualtan to reproduce the quest his uncle and father had undertaken to defeat Those That Stand in Shadow many years ago - to find the gemstone-eyed Master of the Great Beasts, the Dragon King, and bring him back in time to stop the war.
All the threads are tied, the sub-plots resolved. Whatever happened to Elizabetha, Arkonis, and Horga, the giant? What became of Romulax the evil druid? What of Darksiege's servants, Bakal and Karash? How did Qualtan's uncle and father uncover the Dragon King? What will happen to the School, the Alliance, and the Order Qualtan wishes to lead?
All the supporting cast are here - the knights, the Kings, the Arch-Mages, Prince Termenon, the Kubare' Queen, Snowflake, faces from the past (some surprisingly forgotten about), Death himself, and very possibly...the Dragon King.
The war is coming...
