Opis

Three brothers. One legacy that binds them. Seth is bored of his life as a marshal's bodyguard, but he's never bothered to embark on the adventures he's always dreamed of. Eni is married to his job. He's a talented weaponsmith who has willingly sacrificed everything for his craft. Val hides in his library, preferring the company of books to people. Living in different corners of Paladnith, the brothers parted ways ten years earlier. They haven't seen each other since. There's something missing in their lives, yet none of them intend on changing anything - until fate intervenes. Unbeknown to the brothers, their mother - who disappeared when they were children - was a powerful witch. The only reason they're still alive is because of the protection charms they wear around the necks. Amulets she gave them. Thirty years on, the charms no longer shield them. They have reached manhood and they must face the future alone. Suddenly, the brothers' safe, easy lives begin to unravel. Seth finds himself on the run - from a caped attacker who will never stop hunting him. Eni witnesses a stabbing and ends up accused of murder - a crime he will hang for. Val's master sends him on a perilous quest across the mountains - one he's not supposed to return from. The brothers embark on three separate journeys; ones that will tear away their old identities and force them to face the truth of who they really are. Journey of Shadows (Book One of the Paladnith Chronicles) is a tale of epic adventure, discovery, fear and courage. It's the story of three men, and the destiny that awaits them."
