Bard Constantine

Everfell and Champion Bard Constantine

The first two books of the thrilling epic fantasy series by Bard Constantine are now available in a single volume set. In the loosely allied kingdom of Leodia, the fragile peace is threatened by a scheme from the shadows, where an immortal lord obsesses over curing the curse that afflicts his people, the akhkharu. Alaric Aelfvaldar pursues his agenda across ages of time, but his chase is finally at an end. The artifact he seeks is within reach, but its taking will disrupt a world ignorant of his people's existence and threaten to destroy all he has worked to protect. Nyori Sharlin is a newly appointed Shama, one of the few guardians of ancient lore that know beings called akhkharu exist. Her recovery of a powerful artifact called Eymunder places her directly under the baleful eye of the akhkharu and their leader, the Pale Lord. She will be pursued by their terrifying minions in a desperate quest to keep Eymunder out of their hands. Her path will lead to direct confrontation, forcing her to choose between protecting life and destroying it. Marcellus Admorran knows nothing of akhkharu or schemes from the darkness. Yet the renowned knight's life is plunged into ruin regardless as he is betrayed and all he loves is annihilated. With nothing but vengeance to keep him focused, he pursues a path that leads to a dark and fearsome transformation. Yet not even revenge can be gained without the taint of regret, for his quest reveals a sinister plot that threatens not only him, but the kingdom he once cherished more than life itself. When legends clash, humanity suffers. And when the machinations are finally revealed, the world of mankind will be vastly unprepared for the consequences
