Shedding Skins: The Mages of Carcamesh Book 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798464261648)

She had her legs wrapped around him in a moment, one arm tight across his forehead pulling his head back. With her other hand, she rammed her wand up his nose with all the power she could muster.

'Yes, ' she hissed in his ear, 'I am persistent.' The weave in his hand changed, morphing suddenly from revelation to something else. His staff ignited, setting fire to the air around them both. Together they screamed in pain as the fire bit, but she held on, forcing the wand deeper, until she felt the thin bone within his nose fracture, and the wand thrust easily into softness..

Shedding Skins is the first book of a companion series to The Nine Fold Gate, and continues the story of Connor and his crusade against the High Mages of Carcamesh.

Connor is unique in all the history of magic. He is both a Mage, and a Soul Keeper; a thing never before seen. And he has made a vow. He will destroy the secret evil that sits at heart of the mage city of Carcamesh; the immortal High Mages who extend their lives through the use of terrible magics.

But the high mages are supremely powerful. To destroy them, Connor must use all of his skill and power; though even that may not be enough.

And even as he searches for a way to destroy them, the high mages are searching for him.

Along the way he discovers new friends and allies, and new enemies. And he uncovers secrets that reach back to the god war and the breaking of the world.

The Mages of Carcamesh is set within the same vast and dynamic world of The Nine Fold Gate series, and takes place even as events in that series progress.

Set in a vast and dynamic world of gods and magic, this epic fantasy is perfect for fans of Lord of the Rings, Wheel of Time and Game of Thrones.
