Master and Boy

Azzadul, the god-king, the Lord of Light revered by many. When the darkness corrupted him, he became the Dark Lord, feared the world over. His magic, once a gateway to immortality for his people, delved instead into horrors as he sought ever deeper levels of mastery. Children were stolen from their beds, coveted for his blood-rites. When he vanished, it all ended, and the people of the world tried to forget, to move on…

Jak Fuller, bound to dark magic, is now committed to a path that will lead him into the heart of Azzadul's former Underworld. With a Necromancer as his guide, Jak is eager to learn how to master his magic, and in doing so, overcome the many hurts in his heart.

Once, Jak thought his path was to run, but now with his new master he is bound directly for the one who seeks him. For there is a greater plan, one that requires defiance and danger, one that will lead Jak directly to the Dark Lord.

One that will awaken a dangerous power, and the only hope for the free world...
