Description
Sorcerers of War is the tale of a mismatched band of knights, wizards and adventurers as they embark on a dangerous quest to save a fantastical realm from evil sorcery!
As a child, Conrad Hikes dreamed of becoming a knight of the Kingdom of Yaul. His childhood friend Kallum always wished he would become great sorcerer.
And now, in a strange twist of fate, both their dreams are coming true. Yaul is going to war against the ancient and savage nation of Argate.
A dark legion gathers at Yaul's borders, waiting to rain fire and death down upon the peaceful cities of men, elves and dwarves. The kingdom will need every swordsman and sorcerer it can gather if it is to survive the coming storm.
But the gods have a stranger destiny planned for Conrad and Kallum. Something stirs among the ruins of the long-dead Empire of Torsan. Secrets that have long been forgotten by the world of mortals are once again being whispered in deep dungeons and crooked towers. And so, aided by a fanatical wandering warrior-priest, a mysterious elf, and a pickpocket who may have her eye on more than mere coin, the pair set out on a dangerous quest to unravel an ancient mystery.
Their travels across the fantastic war-torn world of Wezmire, see them battling dragons, demons and villainous sorcerers. If the companions succeed, they will strike a crucial blow against some of the world's most evil and secret powers. And if they fail, the world will plunge into a nightmare of darkness and chaos from which it may never awaken.
