Bruce Haring, of J.M. Northern Media, writes:

"Move over J.R.R. Tolkien, D.M. Stoddard, has crafted a promising beginning to a new epic quest, one that takes readers on a fantastic journey through a magic realm, ... a compelling epic story that will be enjoyed by any fantasy loving reader. ... sure to become a staple of the fantasy genre for a long time to come."

The Story:

Disillusioned with the thought of becoming a miller, Jerrod sets off to find fame and fortune. After prying a magical sword from the skeletal hand of a fallen knight, he and his new found friends undertake an adventure to recover the secret treasure of the Lost Kings. Accompanied by a wizard and sage, Jerrod finds himself torn between his love for a thief and his blossoming love for a half-Elven druid princess. Armed with courage, steel, and magic they battle formidable beasts as they race to reach the treasure first.
