"Fully developed characters, terrific and unexpected story line. Quite exciting! Reminds me of Lord of the Rings. Had to finish in one sitting."
"I didn't think I would like this book that much, but it is captivating. I loved the characters and can't wait to read more about the adventures of Leo and his band of outcasts."
"From the second page of this story I knew this book was going to be one I liked. It is a wonderful example of epic fantasy in a truly well formed world with all the kinds of characters I love."
"I really enjoyed the story told here. I found myself reading during lunch breaks at work. I am really looking forward to the next book in the series."

Leo was the sole heir to the legendary northern house of Anglian, and all the wealth and nobility that came with it. But somehow, it all felt empty to him. Something was missing--no something was wrong with the world, and he couldn't explain it. So he gave up lordly title to join a broke excavator crew, searching the world with his unlikely companions for relics of the past to sell. Little did he know, he was about to stumble onto a truth buried so long it was lost to time. A thousands year old conspiracy, a church that will do anything to keep it hidden, and a dark cult hiding in the shadows that will stop at nothing to hunt down Leo and his companions.

"To hells with your legacy. My life is my own, and I want to explore the world." Leonel Anglian didn't care about country or politics. Kings were crowned and died, wars came and went. All he wanted to do was explore the world, dig up relics of the past to sell, meet new people in new places and maybe have a few too many drinks along the way.

Leo was supposed to be a hero. It was a part of his family legacy as the grandson of Leoric Anglian, the greatest holy warrior-general the kingdom of Ellaria had ever known. But after Leo's grandfather died and his father was exiled for freeing the very orcs his grandfather rallied against in the Rolanse Liberation war, Leo left that life behind. Legacy had brought him nothing but pain and death, and he wanted no part of it. Now he's a broke excavator--people who are paid by the Cantry Church to search the world for sacred relics of the Ancients--alongside an unlikely group of companions that do more drinking than they do excavating. And Leo wouldn't have it any other way. He never worried a day over the things most people ground themselves to dust over. Until one day Leo stumbles upon the greatest discovery of the Ancients that had been seen in thousands of years--And with it comes secrets that could shake the very foundations of civilization, changing the history that had been known to all the kinsmen of the world. Across the sea in the continent of Teldaran, Kaejic Bloodwolf, Chieftain of the Bloodwolf tribe of orcs has had visions of his people's return to their homeland. Visions of Kaejic wiping out the Anglian line and restoring honor to his people. After coming face to face with Leo's father, Leo is all that is left to stand in the way of Kaejic's destiny. Powerful forces all across both continents are searching for him and the secrets he has uncovered. The hunt for the truth, and Leo himself, begins.
