Book Description
Inspired by the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, Michael Moorcock, Robert E. Howard, and Gary Gygax. The Tomb of Theragaard is a fast paced sword and sorcery story with knights, barbarians, a young wizard, a Necromancer, an undead army, a titanic magical construct, and a youth yearning to be a paladin. Tryam dreams about becoming a legendary paladin of old and combating the evil that is falling across Medias like a malevolent shadow. But as a ward of the Church, he is forced to obey every whim of an overbearing abbot who preaches peace above all else. Dementhus is a wizard of immense power and even greater ambition. To further his ends, he has broken faith with the Wizard Council and has learned the forbidden magic of necromancy. As payment for this knowledge, he must deliver to the Dark God a weapon from the time of the Ancients: an unstoppable artifact known as a Golem.

Years ago, when violent purges plunged Dún Aulin into chaos, Warden Esben Berengar was sent to restore order by any means necessary.
