Description:
Thousands
of years ago, the realm of Ashur was drowned by Darian, Harbinger of
the god Orijin, to save it from the evil Red Harbinger, Jahmash. But
the prophecies say Jahmash will return—and only Darian’s chosen
Descendants, those who bear a black line on their face, can save
mankind.
Baltaszar:
An untried lad from a hidden village. He must find the House of
Darian to learn how to use his mysterious powers.
Marshall:
The last of a race of warriors slaughtered by Jahmash’s army. Will
the other Descendants help him avenge his family and his race?
Prince
Garrison: He spent years following his father, the king’s orders to
kill all who bear the mark of Darian—even though he bears it
himself. Can the other Descendants accept him? Or will they kill him?
Time
is running short for the Descendants. Hunted by the people they are
supposed to protect, can they save Ashur from its greatest threat:
The Red Harbinger?
About
the Author:
Khalid
Uddin’s credits his creative beginnings to comic books,
specifically “The Amazing Spider-Man” and “X-Men”. Throughout
middle school and high school, his predominant hobby was drawing his
favorite characters, original characters, and just about everything
that was put in front of him. Once his college roommate introduced
Khalid to Robert Jordan’s “The Wheel of Time” book series
(later completed by Brandon Sanderson), his imagination evolved. He
had already been familiar with Tolkien’s vivid world, but Jordan’s
was something new and far grander. Khalid saw the beginnings of his
own fantasy world coming to life, thanks to these authors and to many
of his own coming of age experiences.
When
his head is not stuck in the fantasy world, Khalid spends his free
time with his wife Jen and adorable one year-old daughter, Emme, who
have both been incredibly generous with giving him time to write and
finish his novel. He makes a living with literature, being a high
school English teacher in New Jersey.
