Outland

Beschreibung

Over 200 years ago, fallen gods destroyed the earth with their wars. The survivors thought they were safe in Novum, the last vestige of civilization. But the same threat that devastated the world so long ago has reemerged. In spite of the cynicism of his elders, Liam leaves their safe haven to seek Dorian, one of the fallen, the last hope to save what's left of humanity. Maynard wants power and wealth and doesn't care much how he comes by them. When a mysterious and charismatic figure offers him the opportunity to fulfill his ambitions, Maynard thinks he is willing to do whatever it takes. Liam must navigate the mysteries of the desert, but he finds quickly that he may be no match for the dangers waiting for him. Meanwhile, it doesn't take long before Maynard begins to question how far he's willing to go to get what he wants. Through blood and battle, both Maynard and Liam find that road to success is dark, and the outcome may look different than they expected. In his debut novel, M.C. Coward presents a fresh post-apocalyptic fantasy world with intriguing characters, vivid prose, and complex themes. Outland is a desertscape of ancient magic and mysterious divine forces where little is as it seems. Among the lurking horrors there is also hidden beauty and hope in unexpected places. This lively, epic tale is sure to keep readers invested right up to its satisfying conclusion.
