The actual title is 'The Fall of Mahgus: Army of Ten'.

The genre of the novel is high fantasy, epic in length and inspired by authors such as Steven Erikson and R. Scott Bakker.

It is written in a mature tone suitable for an older and well read audience.

The story is written from different perspectives, though Eduran is the main character and the plot mainly revolves around him.

A very brief synopsis:


Fathenras. An ancient land whose halls tell many tales of great kings and generals, wars and wizards, blood and battle. But a devouring force of intellect and deceit bring its demise, as Tzanrielle take all that she desires.

Eduran is a young man in a desperate town stricken by hunger from tax increases in recent years. He accompanies his older stepbrother Lowbe on a search for any kind of food that may help their family survive through the winter. They find their way into a valley that is said to be cursed, and Eduran witnesses things that could only be of his imagination.

Runne Vaghenrelle is a former Knight who is accused of destroying his own men, a prisoner in a castle he only sought to protect. But chance plays in his favour as he finds himself released by an unlikely authority. Fortune turns against him as he finds himself in between darker dealings than those of lords and kings.

Lord General Lyonoadas is a man of great reputation as his Second Imperial Army had proven itself time and again. He feels disgraced with having his duties reduced to occupying a kingdom that was as desolate as Fathenras had become. He decides to take things into his own hands as he deceives the people he was chosen to rule over, trading their tax dollars for soldiers of their own blood. He amasses the largest army any have seen in years, and his power becomes feared by all.

hmm..

not my style... what demograpic are you mainly aiming for? old people or children or teenagers or what?

fantasy can really be a bit of a nerdy book genre...
