Invading Darkness

Book excerpt: Malik Owen was the sole survivor of a brutal and sudden attack on his home town. An attack which completely destroyed everything he knew and left him alone in the world. Rescued by a friend of his parents, he was taken to the city of Founders Rock and trained as a member of the elite Crimson Guardians, a special unit of men and women who embark on only the most dangerous missions for the king. Now while tormented by vicious nightmares, Malik must face a new mission far to the north east of his country Arlieana. His assignment: To investigate the disappearance of several communities and the possible reactivation of a long forgotten 'Dark Gateway'. A device which if repaired could signal the return of an ancient evil to the planet Vishante. Partnered with an inexperienced Elemental Mage Aris Calgar, Malik embarks on a journey of self discovery which will bring him face to face with an evil from his forgotten past and perhaps finally bring some peace to his soul.
