2026 Realm Award Winner. Critically acclaimed filmmaker Ezra Ferguson returns to the world of epic narrative with an unforgettable, heart-rending tale of extraordinary men standing alone against a cosmic evil.

GOD'S HONOR. A BROTHER DOES NOT LIE!

A devout order of warrior monks had rid the world of demonic power. But when their oath-sworn prince rises to the throne, his folly threatens to undo everything. Voldigar, their aging champion, left bloodshed behind, living out his autumn years in bitter-sweet peace, caring only for the soil and the suffering woman he loves. Now, as the shadows of his past and an ancient evil loom over his dreams, he and his Brethren are all that stand against the end of days...

Return to Aramon - A New Moon is heroic, nobledark fantasy written in the tradition of the classic epics, seeking that which is good, true, and beautiful. Return to Aramon explores love, loyalty, and sacrificial courage in sharp contrast to the post-modern cynicism and nihilism so common to the stories of our day. In reverence for the beauty of language, Return to Aramon honors the foundations of high fantasy while speaking in the distinct voice of a generation who saw the end of an age.

From the back cover:

Voldigar left the past behind, to dream of field and family…

SORCERY WAS NO MORE, for The Brotherhood of Aramon destroyed it. The terror of the Red Cloak to those who worked in shadow and communed with demons was absolute, but within a decade, these deeds were only legend. The traditions of the Tellers and Chanters were no longer welcome among a decadent people, and their memory washed away as rain over the hinterlands. Heroes became teachers. Hunters became plowmen, and they traded their swords for books…

Voldigar left the past behind, to dream of field and family. Long delayed, he hung his cloak upon the hook a final time and left the Brotherhood to other men. Yet the ghosts of his past and the grip of his convictions will not let him dream in peace. When a sudden nightmare sweeps over the realm, the aging warrior is thrust again into the teeth of a demonic incursion that threatens his budding life and the suffering woman he loves.

Return to Aramon is a heroic fantasy in the tradition of the masterworks that created a genre. Join Voldigar and a host of legends old and new in a world-spanning epic that explores the deeper questions of courage and sacrifice, of truth and love, and of purpose and prophecy. Return to Aramon: A New Moon is the first installment in an age-old saga made new for those who seek a deeper fantasy.

central to the story

Author note: Return to Aramon takes place in a fully fictional world. While it is not allegory, the faith of the protagonist is congruent with Biblical Christianity. This is fiction aimed at adults, but great care is taken to avoid any glorification if evil. Mature younger audiences can also enjoy the book, but discerning readers should know it deals with hard themes of addiction, trauma, terror, difficult pregnancy, violence, and persistent dread.
