But in a desperate attempt to save his dying wife, he has sacrificed it all—abandoning his duties, betraying his deepest beliefs and falling ever deeper into darkness. So far, he has done nothing but fail, and his wife’s time is growing short. Now, haunted by his past, Alaric has found one last chance at a cure, hidden in a magical Wellstone buried a century ago. With the help of a handful of quirky companions, the stone—and the cure—are finally within his grasp. But he’s not the only one searching for the Wellstone. His quest grows more perilous as he discovers that his companions are harboring dangerous secrets their own. It becomes almost impossible when he unearths rumors of a gathering shadow threatening the land—whispering of the return of a dark lord, thought to be defeated.

A boy on a quest for manhood. A girl on a quest for ancient technology. One is hunting the predator; the other becomes the prey. Their worlds collide in a deadly chase through a once great city known only as the Zirchon Ruins. A short story prelude in the Chronicles of Tov. Interview with the Author Q - What makes the Chronicles of Tov series special? A - The Chronicles of Tov is a series written for the coming of age Christian child. Bookshelves are overflowing with books about witches, wizards, demigods, monsters, and other topics that the Bible clearly calls evil and there are so very few books written for the Christian tween in the action/adventure/fantasy genres. We believe there is a serious need in the book world for books that hold Christian values in high-esteem, call good good and evil evil and yet give kids that feeling of adventure that is relevant to them today. Q - So, this book series is written for Christians only? A - No, absolutely not, the story of Tov is written allegorically. It can be enjoyed by anyone who wants an exciting story with good moral lessons. They'll see kids living out the Golden Rule and at times learning that breaking the commands given them have real consequences. They'll see engaged fathers and mothers who are strong, vibrant, devoted, and most of all involved in their children's lives. For this series, children and parents who want a deeper understanding of the Biblical principles or an explanation of the allegory, they can go to our website. Q. How many books will there be in the Chronicles of Tov series? A. The Chronicles of Tov is an epic fantasy series. The short answer is: we don't know. The long answer: Edge & Lira is currently a stand-alone adventure, but coming hot on its heels is the first book of the upcoming Forge series. That series is slated for 8 books. But Edge & Lira and Forge are set in a relatively short period of time in the world of Tov. We anticipate several more series that span the entire life of Tov. Q - Is there anything else you'd like to share with your readers about this new series? A - The Chronicles of Tov is a fast-paced, action-packed, thrill-ride adventure that blends great storytelling with moral lessons set in a fantasy world, filled with strange creatures, amazing locations, dynamic protagonists, steampunk and science fiction elements, and good, clean fun.
