About Wizard of Ends, Book 1:
A powerful sorceress wants the Queen of Ends dead – revenge for the king’s refusal to hand over his crown. Believing the Land of Ends to be rightfully hers, the sorceress conjures creatures of darkness to hunt the queen. She is not expected to survive the night.
Only the wizard Lashlor Leaflin can protect Queen Narraki Dragonsbane. Except Lashlor believes that anyone who abuses magic will not see the goddess in the afterlife, so he avoids using it – at almost any cost. Torn between his beliefs and loyalty to the throne, Lashlor faces an impossible choice: risk the goddess’ wrath or risk the kingdom and all in it.
Lashlor is certain that a confrontation with such a formidable sorceress will be the death of him, but it soon becomes apparent that he may have no choice but to call on the power he holds within – power he doesn’t believe is strong enough.
