Destroyer of Worlds

Saga of the Forgotten Warrior #3 / 6 ✓

Destroyer of Worlds (Saga of the Forgotten Warrior #3) by Larry Correia
Unrated

IF IT'S WAR YOU WANT... The best of military epic fantasy as the bestselling Saga of the Forgotten Warrior series continues.

The Great Extermination has begun.

In the Capitol, Grand Inquisitor Omand Vokkan hatches a plot to kill every member of the untouchable caste in all of Lok, down to the last man, woman, and child. As a member of the Order of Inquisition, Vokkan has no official say in the creation of Law, but he has powerful allies willing to do his bidding. Through them, he has convinced the Judges that the genocide will be swift, complete, and without complication. Nothing is farther from the truth.

Lord Protector Devedas has sworn to uphold the Law. Once, he and the traitor Ashok Vadal had been like brothers. Now, he hunts Vadal and the Sons of the Black Sword, heretics and rebels who seek to live outside the rule of the Law. All Devedas must do is find and kill his best friend and order will be restored to Lok.

The rebels seek the secret kingdom spoken of by the Prophet Thera, a paradise where water is pure and food plentiful, where there are no castes, where the people rule themselves, and are not slaves to the Capitol. Ashok Vadal is not sure he believes in such a Paradise, but he — along with his allies — do seek refuge in the rebellion’s hideout in Akershan. But Vadal, a former High Protector who has turned his back on the corrupt Law, will not merely wait meekly, hoping that fleeing to Akershan will spare the rebellion from the clutches of the Great Extermination. No, if it’s a war the Capitol wants, Vadal, who has faced down gods and demons, will be all too willing to give it to them.

Whether it’s monsters lurking in the dark or forbidden magic changing the course of history, Correia brings his readers along for a wild, unrelenting ride.

Born in the heart of the United States, Larry was a fan of genre fiction from a young age, developing a particular love for action-oriented fantasy and science fiction. He found his voice early, crafting stories that allowed him to mix his lifelong love of thrilling narratives with his fascination for alternate worlds.

He burst onto the literary scene with his Monster Hunter International series, a perfect showcase of his ability to write characters that are both tough and relatable, while throwing them into extraordinary, often absurd situations. The series captivated readers with its mix of humor, gunfire, and monster-slaying action—everything a fan of urban fantasy could want, and more.

Larry’s works often explore themes of duty, honor, and the grey areas of morality. His protagonists aren’t flawless heroes, but people driven by a sense of justice and a relentless desire to protect those who can’t protect themselves. This combination of realism and fantastical elements makes his work stand out in a genre full of larger-than-life characters. His books don’t just offer action—they delve into the personal stakes of those who find themselves in extraordinary circumstances, giving readers a chance to connect with characters in ways that feel visceral and honest.

Beyond his Monster Hunter International series, Larry has also worked in the Grimnoir Chronicles and The Saga of the Forgotten Warrior series, further solidifying his place as a go-to author for fans of urban fantasy and science fiction.

Whether he’s writing about a team of misfits fighting to save the world from supernatural threats or exploring darker, more nuanced themes of power and corruption, Larry’s books are known for one thing: they never let up. They pull readers into fast-paced worlds where danger lurks at every turn, and the only way out is to fight like hell.

For Larry, writing is a chance to create worlds where readers can escape into action and adventure, while also getting a glimpse of what it takes to survive the battles that aren’t always so clear-cut. It’s a journey that’s just as thrilling as it is thought-provoking—one that keeps readers coming back for more.
