Book Description
Some Stories Pass Into Legends The cosmos stands on the precipice of something great, something grand; something terrible. In a secluded forest, a man garbed in black knows this, and does nothing; he does not care. Many find themselves there, in that place where legends go to die; they, like he, are alone. He, unlike they, has had everything ripped from him. In a dark and warm place, there is a woman with hair red as blood, who does nothing; she has no idea how to. She is like everyone else: unknown, in danger, and hopeless; merely another forgotten legend who doesn't even remember herself.This is the story of Mister E, of his triumphs and tribulations. This is the story of Scarlett, of her pain and her joy. This is a tale of dead legends, and of how they are not content to remain forgotten, on the edge of the existence. A great unraveling of the cosmos is about to begin, and these ghosts of myths and fables are about to be swept up in a scheme too large to fathom, but they will not submit peacefully.In "Legend Land," things are not black and white; there are no heroes and villains. It is a murky, grey mess where the lines between "good" and "evil" are thin and barely exist. Follow the story of several long forgotten legends as they rediscover what it means to be human, to feel, in a world where having a conscience or dropping your guard can earn you permanent erasure from the fabric of reality. Follow these characters as they decide when to become the hero, or embrace being a villain; as they decide where to draw the line, and when to obliterate it completely.

Book Description
A complete epic fantasy trilogy for fans of Brandon Sanderson and Patrick Rothfuss who love compelling characters and outstanding world-building. Over 1500 pages described as "...captivating and unique!" A land broken. A realm shattered. A race enslaved. Two thousand years have passed since the Shattering. Humans rule and the once powerful faerie have no more rights than a dog. Isiilde, a coveted nymph, is destined to be sold when she comes of age, but her formidable guardian, Oenghus Saevaldr, has other ideas. Unfortunately, even he - the Bloody Berserker of Nuthaan - can't single-handedly protect a nymph from men and gods alike. Desperate, he carries her away to the Isle of the Wise Ones to beseech a mad seer for refuge. A secret sways the ancient, but his choice comes at a cost. A thousand wars have been fought over possession of a single nymph, and this one's mere presence proves disastrous. Isiilde's strange affinity with fire, stemming from Chaos itself, makes her every waking moment fraught with danger. As Oenghus strives to carve a future for the nymph, Isiilde trembles on a precipice, caught between the lust of men, the greed of kings, and an eternal struggle for dominance. As three powerful kingdoms vie to own her, the fire in her blood awakens, sparking a cataclysm that spirals into disaster. Includes books 1-3: A Thread in the Tangle, King's Folly, and The Broken God. "Riveting and epic!" "An extremely original tale." "Storytelling at its finest." "I can easily see the 'Legends of Fyrsta' becoming equivalent to the fantasy books that we all know and love from J. K. Rowling and J. R. R. Tolkien."
