This book contains full versions of the first three books in the Blood and Brotherhood Saga. Book One, The Choosing. Seth is a young man torn by fear and indecision. His life no longer in his hands, he fears an uncertain future where the only certainty is a life of servitude to the kingdom. Fortunately for Seth, he is not alone. His brother Garret too attends the choosing ceremony where their fates will be decided. Together the twins make their way to the castle city of Valdadore for the choosing ceremony but along the way Seth notices a strange new trend in his life. Time after time strange circumstances befall him in what others might call a coincidence, but Seth knows something else is amiss and begins mentally cataloging each new and strange event. Learning his past is all a lie, Seth begins to fear more for his future as a dark goddess vies for his service to her cause. Seths loyalties and responsibilities begin to stack up as he makes friends and allies and even falls in love, but with the choosing ceremony growing ever nearer will he be forced to flee the kingdom into a life of exile, or choose to serve the goddess who swears that only through her will he find peace. Book Two, The Chosen. Seth, his brother Garret, and Sara, the woman he loves, have survived the massacre of the choosing ceremony. Having been "chosen" into different roles in servitude to the kingdom, Each of them fears the unknown. As Garret strives to become blessed by the mighty Gorandor, the god of battle, Seth struggles to become one of the gray robed mages known as guardians. As hopes are dashed, and plans fail, Seth manages to become blessed with amazing magical power. Labeled a "Death Mage" Seth swears his loyalty to King Valdadore himself. In preparation for an unwinable battle, the king presses Seth to use his powers to create a new breed of troops. Against an immense enemy, the army of Valdadore is sure to crumble without the help of Seth and his new breed of hybrid wolf troops. But even with their help will it be enough to save the people of Valdadore? Book Three, The Changing. Having been transported to a foreign land by unknown magical means during the battle with the black horde, Seth must find a way to ressurect his fallen lover and find their way home.
