Washed-up seventies glam rock star and British expat, Harrington Gloss, has been contracted to write a fantasy novel. As the deadline looms, he is at a loss as to how to begin, never having written a novel before in his life. Help arrives when he ducks into the Gryphon’s Claw Cafe one fateful evening. There he meets a prickly rock diva, Kincaid McAllister, and inspiration begins to take hold. The would-be writer embarks on a fantastical tale about a scarred and battle-hardened medieval knight-errant, Sir Fenmar of Raventry, the preeminent warrior of the age. Sir Fenmar is sent on an improbable quest into the Jagged Mountains by Princess Isabella of Castle Splendour. His assignment? To locate a mythical dragon she believes can save the kingdom from a mysterious calamity that has befallen it.

As the hero, Sir Fenmar, is given a final shot at redemption, can his hapless author, Harrington Gloss, find a way to transform his own destiny? “The novel’s unique blend of genres and its charismatic protagonist make it a standout in contemporary fiction.” --The Literary Reporter on Angels’ Keep
Tyler McAdam Harisson had a dream. He was given an egg, and a letter snugged in a parchment envelope, whilst a lady in black robes, surrounded with purple flames, floated in the air. Raindrops suspended in the thick atmosphere around them, and some delusional remarks that changed his life forever–something about the dark lord and immortality.

After he learnt who his birth father was, he still hesitated and doubted.

Will Tyler choose to take matters into his own hands and fight for the people who believe in him? Or will his fear of uncovering the dark truth and secrets about the two greatest wizards get the best of him?
