Enjoy thrilling dark epic fantasy adventure as only Jack Conner could bring it to you.LORD OF THE BLACK LAND:Dark times have come to the kingdom of Felgrad. Once one of the jewels of the Crescent, now the dark powers have turned their gaze upon it, and Giorn Wesrain, son of the baron of Fiarth, has become inextricably drawn into the machinations of the Dark One, along with his beloved Niara, High Priestess of Illiana.Their love will be tested as the armies of the enemy strive against Felgrad. Worse, one of their own, Raugst, is in truth an agent of the Dark Lord, and Raugst will soon bend the barony to his will. If Felgrad falls, so too will the rest of the Crescent, and then the Dark Lord will be unleashed upon the world.Only Giorn and Niara can stop him, but how can they when the legendary Moonstone, the great artifact of the Light that has kept the fell powers at bay for thousands of years, has been taken? As Giorn sets out into the waste lands after it, to either reclaim it or find out what the Dark Lord wants it for, enemy hordes swarm the mighty city of Thiersgald and Niara is trapped behind its walls . . . with Raugst.WAR OF THE BLACK TOWER: Baleron is the youngest son of the king of Havensrike, a land eternally at war with the dark empire of Oslog to the south. Ruled by the Dark Lord, the legions of Oslog have continually striven to tear down the works of man, elf and dwarf and sweep the world in shadow. For ages they have awaited their lord's Chosen One, he who will be appointed by Gilgaroth to usher in the next age of shadow. That time is now. Baleron, though a womanizer and rogue, the black sheep of the royal family one step from being kicked out of the castle, is loyal to the kingdoms of the north and wants only to redeem himself in his father's eyes. But as Baleron leads his sister Rolenya's wedding party through the treacherous Aragst Mountains, they're set upon by the dark powers, and the thralls of the Dark Lord call out to Baleron in worship, calling him the Chosen One. Soon Baleron is cursed and his sister Rolenya is taken by the foul hordes. Baleron must rescue her before she is corrupted, but how can he when his curse is driving him to fulfill the prophecy of the End Times and usher in the reign of the Dark Lord? Featuring grand set pieces, epic battles, operatic action and the best dragon since Smaug, this is just the beginning of Baleron's epic journey of action, romance, wonder and discovery. He'll know battle, hardship and all the terror of Oslog before he can find out what it means to be the Chosen One of Gilgaroth, and what it takes to throw off his dark destiny.
