THE ADOW SPOKE A FALSE PROPHECY and now a kingdom of warriors follows her to their doom. She knows it’s all a lie, but what can she do when everyone expects her to speak as the voice of god?
A FATHER FAILED TO PROTECT THE woman he loved, and now must save his daughter from assassins. He knows she deserves better, but what can he do when tradition dictates he serves as protector?
A BOY ENTERTAINS HIS AUDIENCE WITH tales of wonder and glory, and then must scrounge for food lest he starve. He wants more out of life, but what can he do as a member of a discarded community?
In The Adow, the first book of his God of Another World series, Chad Michael Cox shows us a fantasy world filled with fallen heroes who continue to fail, scholars who accept fiction as fact, and sorcerers whom everyone openly mocks. As heard in tales told by the cursed taggles, or glimpsed through the eyes of the Adow, we find people who never get what they want-and don’t deserve any better-yet somehow manage to endure. They fight for one bastard or another, fall in love with the worst of creatures, and honor those who deserve mention only in stories of demons or monsters.
Om författaren
CHAD MICHAEL COX was only five years-old when his grandpa, a police officer known for crafting stories, handcuffed him and left him in a holding cell as punishment for ending a sentence with a preposition. He worked off his debt to society by diagramming sentences for his mother and accompanied his father during visits to local bookstores-a tradition Chad sustains with his own (three) children.Having grown up under such literary hardship, he continued to torment himself by studying Writing, Literature, and Publishing at Emerson College. If this wasn’t bad enough, he married a girl and built her numerous bookshelves and together they accumulated a wonderfully large library, and probably, or maybe only sort of related, they serve the whims of five cats. Now, he tortures other people’s children as a contract writer for Iowa Testing Programs at the University of Iowa.Fler e-böcker från samma författare (r) / Redaktör
