Lines of Blood - Stephen Fenech - Bog

Beware the Starbond. The Evil days have returned. Long foretold in the Kusp-a primeval tome of history and prophecy-Four Blood Scions, champions of the Creator, will awaken to the Starbond's knell. Before the celestial Endstorm, they must merge into one fellowship to prevent Creation's downfall. But when Sonart is wrenched into consciousness only to find himself still locked in a cell, buried deep within a dungeon, he does not trust the divination or the forbidden magic welling inside him. It is a power the dwarven cannot comprehend let alone control. His whole existence in the Cradle has been a tapestry woven in strife and woe, his people clinging to survival in their lost realm. Worse still, the Darkest One has found Sonart out and ensorcelled him with a nefarious spell he is unable to shirk. But as Sonart sets out on his pathless path, an unwilling agent, devolved and attainted, a seed of hope finds him: a solution to his endless torment. He discovers he does not have to tread his dire road alone. Enter Areth, a world beyond imagination, where good and evil forces plot, laying traps within traps as they race to prevent, or bring, about the end of all time. A gripping macabre fantasy for lovers of the classic epic in its purest form.One of the most stirring sagas ever written.
