Deceptions of Power
Kalamar is high on hopes and dreams as he leaves the isolation of his family's farm to begin life in the capital with his Master. Reality, however, has different plans. He quickly discovers those around him, well–meaning or not, have other ideas and agendas. It may be his wish to live a quiet life of magical pursuit as his master's protege, but whether king or pawn, everyone is a piece in the game of life. Even staying out of the game makes him an obstacle for others. As Kalamar quietly navigates these deceptive currents, his every success only makes new and more determined enemies. Every thoughtful and wide–eyed choice only leads to greater dangers and more painful consequences should he fail. This book is a fantasy thriller taking a direct look at good versus evil and how even the smallest decisions feed into the greater narrative of each person's life. It is the first of the book series.
