Lord of Ten Shadows: the Second World Chronicles

Three hundred and sixty years ago, Lord Magellan devastated the Second World. Cities were destroyed. Civilizations died, and countless millions died before his invincible crusade. As quickly as he began, he stopped, leaving a vast portion of the Second World in ruin. For centuries, the people of Sunfall have lived in constant dread of the moment Magellan's rage exploded anew to destroy them all. That night has come. With the ancient monster active again, Guildshelm finds itself in a position of reluctant leadership as some nations turn to them for help - bringing their own intrigues and agendas with them. Meanwhile, Philosopher despairs over a shocking discovery, until a beautiful Timeless appears. Calling herself "Anastasia the Muse," she reveals surprising secrets about Philosopher's true past and the role he could play in the future. This is the second book in the Second World Chronicles, continuing the story begun in The Guildshelm Legacy.
