When Night Falls: Book One of The Three Gifts

Librarian Note: See Alternate Cover Edition HERE. We rarely consider the reputation of our age. An ordinary one, for most of us, would suffice. You might be an Empress too concerned with the affairs of State, a soldier focused on your duty, a former rascal trying to find redemption, or even a great warrior too busy with your command to know that there are whispers being spoken in late night taverns. But what happens when your ordinary age stops being so ordinary? What happens when dark, twisted things have stepped out of the mists of legend to walk the world again? Strange, black ships have been spotted far out at sea. People are disappearing from towns all over the Twelve Nations without a trace. Only Cordovan, a member of the Watchmen of Alexandria, knows something is wrong as he races toward the capital hoping he will make it in time. Meanwhile, far to the north, two of the ancient Sages of the West, the Ki'gadi, know that the darkness is coming. While the rest of the world carries on, ignorant to the danger, they search for the place where the darkness is taking root. Heroes will be needed to face what is coming. Thankfully, Alexandria is home to Bantu, the Commander-General of the Peoples Company. He will be the key when night falls.
