A Child of Two Worlds Book One of the Nine Realms Series

Night had fallen, and the screams of the dying beyond the wall of the Arcane City sent shivers down Darren Wright's spine. We are all going to die here, he thought. Smoke billowed from the watch fire at his back, causing the sixteen-year-old guardsman to cough. Sweat trickled down his forehead. His helmet was stifling in the oppressive summer heat; the sun being down did nothing to lower the temperature. Another scream of anguish and he gripped his white ash spear tighter. --- When Azreal oversteps his bounds as Overlord of Hell and invades the peaceful Inner Realms, the Nine Realms are thrown into a tumultuous war that claims countless lives. Alex Zane, a retired Marine from Earth, and Terra Duval, a powerful woman with a mysterious past, must work together to unite a war-torn world to fight back against the forces of Hell. But will their burgeoning love prevent them from fulfilling their goals, or will it help push Alex and Terra down the correct path? A Child of Two Worlds is the first of nine novels in the Nine Realms Series, an Epic Fantasy series that encompasses several dimensions and plumbs the depths of humanity's history, faults, and triumphs.
