New Blurbs! I need your opinion!
After the lengthy debate on Kboards, I've tried to inject some salesmanship and intrigue into my blurbs!
Please, please - tell me what you think of these, are they more exciting and enticing than the old ones? A common criticism was that I told the reader 'too much' before.
Let me know your thoughts!
Book 1:-
Imperial Wizard Saul Karza has a problem.
He has to kill an invulnerable dragon and he's left his army at home.
There's only one thing that will turn his fatal failure into survivable success - The Last Dragon Slayer.
~
Saul Karza, wizard of the Empire, has been given a quest by the Empress herself: To find and slay a mythical 'noble dragon'; said to be near invulnerable. Instead of leading a large band of soldiers, archers and spell-casters, he sets out with two immigrant dock-workers and a homeless dwarf. What Saul needs is the legendary 'Last Dragon Slayer' on his side, because on this deadly quest it's not only Saul's favour with the Empress that's at stake - but also his life.
Book 2:-
Imperial Wizard Saul Karza has stared death in the face.
Instead of an easy ride home to claim his reward, he finds himself fleeing a fanatical dragon cult and a horde of vile creatures - determined to devour his entire party.
Just when things couldn't get any worse, he is faced with the even greater horror, of Brael Truthseeker's enigmatic 'Truth'.
~
Battle-worn and weary, Saul and the survivors of the dragon encounter must travel south to collect their reward. When the fanatical dragon cult appears, desperate for revenge - Saul's party is forced to flee into a network of abandoned dwarfish tunnels. Deep beneath the surface, they face the horror of the Verkreath and of Brael's 'Truth'. Even if they survive, their lives will be changed forever.
Book 3:-
Imperial Wizard Saul Karza has dragged himself through hell.
Instead of falling into the Empress's arms, re-kindling their relationship - he finds she has regained her lost youth, leaving him old and frail.
His strong position at court is at risk, as thanks to Brael's 'Truth', he is forced to make a stand against the tyranny of the church. Even if he can maintain his position he risks losing more than one companion, to the brutal, 'Blood Trials'.
Reeling from the bloody battles with the verkreath, Saul and his companions are finally on their way to Cormaroth - prize in hand. Celebrations will be cut short though, when Brael's 'Truth' brings them into confrontation with the church. Saul's difficulties do not end there - forced to watch his companions compete in the sadistic, 'Blood Trials'.
