War for the Entar: Rise of a Hero

Seventeen years ago, General Covinus cut down a legend and took his power. He has been hunting for more ever since.

James Taunton has never known a home outside the Luranian Sword. An orphan raised by its headmaster, he trains beside Jones and Saya, rivals who became family, on a campus tucked into the mountains of Lurania. He thinks the Sword is unbreakable.

Then the truth about his parents surfaces. They did not simply die. They were keeping a secret, and it was meant for him. Now something is waking in James's blood, a power the forest itself bends away from, and one he cannot control.

Far across the stars, five captive Heklar minds, wired into one, have found what Covinus wants. Three Entar, somewhere at the Sword.

Covinus has already seen how this begins. James has no idea what is coming.

The first novel of the War for the Entar saga, following the prequel novellas A Warrior's Burden and The First Rival. Coming November 17, 2026 at EntarWar.com.
