Ruinwaster's Bane - 2nd Edition by J Jason Hicks (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

With the very course of creation hanging in the balance, Aenguz Sidor, a wounded Akkeidii Warrior, holds the key to saving the people of Earth-if he can deliver the message in time. An unthinkable message from Lord Morgrom the Divider. A message he cannot share, and that no one may believe.

Following the unexpected death of his father, Aenguz is faced with a challenge to the death for the right to rule. Burdened with the message, he must decide what his legacy will be among his people. Will he die and be a savior or live and be a pariah?

His sudden capture leaves him lost far from home in the harrowing Lands of the Earth. He must find a way to deliver the message in time through old battle lines to the only people with the power to help save the Earth and shed the stigma of being the Last Emissary.

Review Quotes

A Must-Read Epic Fantasy Series Starter

Ruinwaster's Bane is an inspired debut! The book reads like a classic Epic Fantasy that drew me in and swept me along on an incredible adventure. I immediately found myself immersed in the vivid imagery of the unique new world Hicks created and I didn't want to leave. The superb writing brings the main character of Aenguz to life, and I found myself cheering for him as he faces merciless foes in an unforgiving land, where the fate of existence hangs in the balance. The depth of Aenguz's internal and external struggles and triumphs is hard to put down. Hicks has done something special here, weaving together epic world-building, complex characters, and moral dilemmas to create a well-crafted and captivating story. I can't wait for the next book in this series!
