Publisher description
ALL IN THIS TOGETHER John and his brothers are The Rising, guerilla fighters against the usurper of the throne. Out-manned, out-spent, hunted down, they're about to lose. But they are united. NEVER STEP ASIDE John only seems to be a shy and unassuming minstrel. But his music comes from a place deep inside, a magic he will need. TELL ME WHAT IS KEENER THAN THE AXE The repulsive and indolent usurper-prince is only a tool in the hands of one of the most powerful mages ever to stalk realms and ages, and one of the most wicked, a sorcerer who, vampire-like, sucks the life-force from his victims. YOUR HEART BELONGS TO ME How can John and his raw, unexplored powers hope to prevail against such a foe? How can he help his brothers against overwhelming odds? NOW GILLES THE DESTROYER AND DEVOURER STAKES HIS CLAIM THE CALL OF THE SHRIKE follows the events of A GYRFALCON FOR A KING, Book I of the Stormclouds series. In that first novel, John must learn his true nature. "He doesn't even know yet, " Dee said. "What he is.""Oh, " said Gilles. "One of those." He smiled, a cynical smile. "Most mages have no idea what they are, what their powers do. In fact, many of them misuse their powers before they realize. It's dangerous for them, " he said. "They try some things, and they fail, and they die. Sometimes horribly." Three interlocking fantasy series: The Stormclouds fantasy novels: Book I, A Gyrfalcon for a King. Book II, The Call of the Shrike. Book III, Stormbird. The Harbingers fantasy novels: Book I, Blackbird Rising. Book II, Halcyon. Book III, Firebird. Book IV, Ghost Bird. The Betwixt & Between fantasy novels: Book I, The Martlet is a Wanderer. Book II, The Nightingale Holds Up the Sky. And now, Dark Ones Take It, the origin story of the villain Caedon and his brother Maeldoi, the Dark Rider
