The Chronicles of Dog and Troll: Book 1 - Of Dog and Troll (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781493522309)

Out of the ashes of a world long-gone arose a great and powerful warlord, a king who learned and mastered the five archaic magics. The king unified the poisoned lands, spreading his tyranny like a plague. He enslaved entire realms, crucifying all who opposed. But the king's maddening reign shall not last forever, and we will know his end nigh when a man in the form of a beast, and a beast in the form of a man join forces. Troll, an eight-foot tall, 450-pound behemoth of a man without a coherent past, experiences differing memoirs of where he came from. Then a crash-course of mysterious events lead him to cross paths with the Dog, an inhuman capable of shifting into some dog-like bestial; and Star, a former slave under the progeny of a powerful and tyrannical king. Star tells Troll and the Dog of a prophecy about man and nature uniting to topple the king and his five children, the Hellions. Instantly falling hopelessly in love with Star, Troll agrees to follow the vengeful vixen back to her homeland, Krin. Against monsters, demons and all around n'ere do wells, Troll's indelible faith is stretched to its limits as he strives to keep his trio together amidst a gauntlet of trials, leading up to a climactic showdown with a shadowy apparition that knows Troll's deepest, darkest secrets; the king's first Hellion, a child purportedly the son of the devil and the king -- the Wraith.
