All three full length novels together in one volume!
Lorik
Everyone knew he was deadly, even in Hassell Point, a city full of outlaws and thieves. It was obvious at a glance, from his low slung knives, to the blood dripping from his knuckles. But the stranger wasn't looking for trouble, he wanted a fresh start and Lorik was determined to give him one.
Lorik is a teamster, delivering cargo throughout the kingdom of Ortis from his home deep in the marshlands where he has lived his whole life. As rumors of magic and dragons in the northern kingdom of Yelsia cause the King to march to war with his army, lawless men seize the opportunity to take what they can by force. It could be the perfect time for Lorik to partner with the newcomer named Stone, but the young warrior brings problems of his own that could place Lorik and the people he cares about in even more danger.
Set in the world first introduced in the best selling Five Kingdoms series, the Lorik trilogy introduces new characters who will impact the destiny of this fabled land. Lorik is the story of a man whose world is suddenly turned upside down. His concern for a friend earns him an enemy, his actions make him a hero, but his honor could cost him his life.
Lorik The Protector
Magic. Some seek to learn its mysteries, some seek to control it, others are touched by it and forever changed.
"He felt strange. He didn’t open his eyes but he could feel every part of his body, and they were all changing. His muscles, every fiber of them, were growing. Blood ran through his veins in an intoxicating dance. His heart beat so strongly he couldn’t believe it. He could feel it pumping the blood through his body, like a drum beating the cadence of the dance. His bones felt like iron and his mind was light, his thoughts fast and nimble, like a deer dashing through the woods."
The King of Ortis has marched to war with his entire army, leaving the people of his kingdom unprotected. Into this void comes Lorik, battle axe in hand, leading a small group of volunteers from the southern marshlands. They travel north to help tide the invasion by the Norsik raiders who come to kill, pillage, and take slaves. But it will take more than brute strength and a sound strategy to turn back the massive tribes of raiders, and the danger will threaten not only Lorik but his most dearly loved friends as well. As magic awakens in the Five Kingdoms, Lorik's world teeters on the brink of disaster and unless Lorik finds his purpose and fulfills his destiny, all will be lost.
Lorik The Protector is an action filled high adventure novel that moves at a blinding pace. It is the second installment of the Epic Fantasy Lorik trilogy and is set in the world of the best selling Five Kingdoms series.
Lorik The Defender
Times are dire in the Five Kingdoms. In the south, an evil sorceress summons horrific beings called Leffers into the world of men, and is building a massive army to conquer Ortis and the other kingdoms who still oppose her. Everyone looks to Lorik to defend them, but with only a few dedicated volunteers at his side, he holds out little hope of success. Meanwhile, a new evil is taking shape in the north. An ancient evil is stirring, one that will pierce the heart of Lorik as he struggles to fulfill his destiny. Magic is drawn to the mighty warrior, but will it engulf him in darkness, or carry him through the veil of evil shrouding the Five Kingdoms and into the light of a new era of peace?
The third installment in the Lorik Trilogy is a fast paced, epic fantasy thriller that will keep you turning pages late into the night. Join Lorik, Stone, and Vera on an adventure unlike anything they have faced before with new characters, new challenges, and all new enemies not seen in the Five Kingdoms for hundreds of years.
