Evil stalks the streets of Hirlcrest. A mage walks free among the empire. And a young woman is determined to prove herself… Lilah is a seeker in training. All her life she has dreamt of being a part of the sacred order of warriors with only one goal: seek out magic—evil—and destroy it. Her dream is on the verge of becoming a reality. A seeker is retiring, and the next of the order is to be chosen. Meanwhile, a murder has been committed in the city, a murder that could have only been done with magic. Lilah and the other recruits are tasked with finding the perpetrator, and the test of who is to become the next seeker turns deadlier than she could have ever imagined. The Seeker and the Sword is a prequel novella set in the world of the Hollow Fate series, several years before the first book, A Dark Inheritance, begins.

It’s a dark path to power. When Ruben is bound by magic and hauled across the sea to where the God King reigns, he has only one goal: escape. As he tries to resist his master’s pull, he discovers a secret—the reason he was taken from his family—Ruben is a mage. On his journey to understand his power, his desire to become stronger takes him to dark places, driving him to do even darker things. If he can gain his freedom, will he be able to return to the life he once knew, after what he’s become?

A seeker has a holy mission, to cleanse the Kharleon Empire of magic—and then the world. On the island of Gailopas, Ella wakes from a coma to find that not only has her sixteenth birthday passed in her sleep, but she’s also lost her powers. She has her family back, and together, they defeated the God King. But without her magic, she feels lost. While Ruben and Jesriel sail to the Albion Dominion, to defeat any blood mages left over after the God King’s demise, Ella and Marius journey to the Tahali mountains. They travel to the monks in search of aid, and—Ella hopes—a way to get her powers back. On their way, they pass through Hirlcrest, the capital of the Kharleon Empire, where they find a peaceful monk being attacked by a seeker. The seeker vows to wage war on the Tahali monastery, and it’s up to Ella and Marius to save the monks. A Darkness Beckons is the second book in the Hollow Fate series, an epic fantasy by author Todd Herzman.
