One of the best books I’ve read in a long time. AJ Coote’s writer of AlmytheaThe Forgotten is an epic fantasy adventure with adult themes. An ancient evil plagues the land. Hidden in the shadows of the south, the Va'nahual, a twisted army of man and beast, ready themselves for war. Once Alal is resurrected and reunited with his brethren, the Dread Dragonborn will bring war and death to all of High Garden. During the Chaos War, the Ib'ren Cohar were created using the darkest of magic. Weapons forged to harness the souls of dragons. Aleator Darkwing, a Captain of the Athanatos, has a rare elemental power in his blood that can force the bond with the dragon. Because of this, ‘Tor’ has been captured, beaten, tortured and left alone broken and awaiting slaughter. But what if somehow the sacrifice found the weapon and escaped before the ritual? Will Aleator learn to control the power that now runs through his veins? Will he and his allies escape what pursues them? War seems a forgone conclusion, but the great Oracle Kairos has seen a path to fight back! With a small band of companions, even the unlikeliest heroes can leave their mark on history.
