Battle for the Second Realm (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781922691149)

It is a world where magic once ruled. Where mystical beasts and power-hungry magic-wielders fought for control. The balance ever shifting between order and anarchy.

It is our world and the struggle is no longer forgotten. The old legends have proven to be true and the mystical band of protectors known as the sleeping warriors have awoken to defend the land against the evil that once again fights for dominance. A new generation of magic-wielders has risen to oppose those who would put the delicate balance of the realms in jeopardy.

But how many faces does evil have? Not all the old fairytales can actually be true, can they?

With Michael's family reeling in the aftermath of a fiery battle outside their home, they must now cope with the loss of Nicola, her mind gone, her body inhabited by the soul of an unhinged mage set on revenge at any cost.

But Michael is now bonded, a member of the sleeping warriors. Nightmares are the least of Michael's concerns, now he must fight creatures emerging from the depths of the second realm.

A struggle to contain a deadly contagion, threatening to break out beyond just one suburban family home.

A spate of violent behaviour and illness plaguing the neighbourhood.

And evil turning its face towards Dana - does she have more resources at her disposal that anyone suspects?

With alliances threatening to fracture as new players alter the dynamic and evil beginning to turn against itself, Michael must do everything he can to keep his family together and stop himself from succumbing to the danger that lurks within his own blood.
