Dread Warrior (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798991885348)

What could go wrong when a peaceful land plans a war?

An avenging god with an ancient grudge, Ghyldus, goaded the Minarians into invading the peaceful land of Shande, forcing its leaders into exile. Arshal, King in Exile, wants his country back. His people are bountied, his land occupied and in ruins. The gods granted him powers that might defeat Ghyldus, if he can learn to control them without killing himself.

With the help of his counselor Nali, a healing warrior Khoti, and his surviving siblings Resala and Peshal, Arshal must recruit ally nations, support a rebellion in Minaria, build an army while suffering a brutal occupation, and draw Ghyldus to face him when and where he's strongest.

In Book II our heroes must face tribal rivalries and class divisions to somehow unite Shande and her allies to save themselves.
