    About this ebook

    After being slain in the epic Trojan War, Prince Hector found himself reborn on an extraordinary new world. He befriended the Nemalite people, lived among them, met their Viron gods... and set out to save the Nemalites from the vicious threat of the Atlans...

    But everything since his rebirth had been lies and manipulations. His attack upon the Atlans plunged those innocents into hellish turmoil and condemned many to a fate far crueller than death.

    Now Hector fights alongside the surviving Atlans in an effort to undo the terrible harm he has unleashed. Despite the Atlans hating and condemning him, he teaches them how to fight the Nemalites’ Shaltine warriors and gains the trust of the Atlan queen Nafron. However, a disastrous battle seems to shatter the Atlans’ hopes – leaving Hector and Nafron hunted by hundreds of their enemies...

    Hector’s Atlan comrades foresee their own defeat, followed by the conquest of Hector’s world. They are outnumbered, outmatched and demoralised. How can they overcome:
    The Nemalites, who can forge armies with magic...
    The Shaltine – giant, fearless, tireless automatons...
    The Viron, the malevolent living gods of the Nemalites, deep beneath the impenetrable city of Vir...
    And, worst of all, the resurrected Achilles – the monstrous Greek warrior who brutally slaughtered Hector in the Trojan War..?

    Hector has learned of the genocide of his own people at Troy. He is determined to prevent such an atrocity being committed upon the Atlans and across his own world. His strength comes from a burning desire for retribution. There is no sacrifice he will not make and no torment he will not endure, in order to succeed...

    Can he possibly save two worlds?

    This volume concludes the saga of Hector Reborn.

    Reviews from this author’s fantasy releases:

    ...for the Hector Reborn saga:
    “...I couldn’t put it down. Amongst all the fantasy and action, the strongest part of the story is Hector’s character. He is governed by honour and loyalty – which not only leads him into conflict, but leads him to cause a disaster. We see many sides of him, from his personal strength, to his heartbreak and loss, to a desperation to fix the terrible things he causes... to him being almost destroyed by another twist in the novel... very cleverly written – I highly recommend this book.”
    “...This novel is definitely unique as it incorporates history and fantasy into one whirlwind of a story. We are immediately transported into the world of Hector, the Prince warrior who is determinedly trying to protect his homeland before his death at the hand of Achilles... Hector as a character is hard not to like, he has a distinct set of values and is loyal to a fault. Although granted this does get him into trouble later in the book and he is not immune to making mistakes it was good to read. Without giving away too many spoilers the other characters were definitely full of surprises and the author has no qualms about character deaths. Personally I do enjoy this in a novel as it creates genuine fear for the characters and their fates. If you do enjoy fantasy mixed with some historical fiction then I would recommend this for you.”
    ...for the Era Of Darkness saga:
    “...The action is intense, the battles are brutal, and the characters are complex and very real. What a great story!”
    “...vividly descriptive with an almost metered artistry...”
    “...Fast and furious paced action fantasy. Great characters that you really care for. Battles are huge and bloodthirsty. Cool races and well-designed monsters. A cracking-good read... “
    “I was impressed by the quality of the storytelling... an enthralling mix... a solid read”
    “...intense battles, incredible dark magic... so many twists and turns... I loved it”
    “I was completely sucked in and captivated from the first page”
    “...mixture of fantasy, mystery, loyalty that make it a one of a kind story”
    “Wonderful cha
