The Time of Long Shadows: Book One of the Long Shadows Series

THE TIME OF LONG SHADOWS is set in a world called Aarden by its inhabitants. The story centers around a young man named Gorrenn. He is the son of a farmer. The farm is on the single large continent of Malitok. His life suddenly undergoes a dramatic set of changes. He finds out that he is not who he thinks he is.

People that have helped Gorrenn are subject to constant menace. As Gorrenn continues his journey of self-discovery, the world in which he lives is quickly evolving into something utterly unexpected.
