The Great Rift
Five years ago, young sorcerer Dante Galand and his friend Blays averted war against their new home, the city of Narashtovik. Ever since, they've been repaying their debts, arming and training the nomadic norren people in preparation for rebellion against the empire that enslaves them.
When Dante hears a nearby norren clan is in possession of the Quivering Bow--a legendary artifact that can strike down walls with a single arrow--his course is clear. With such a weapon, he can secure independence for both the norren and Narashtovik. But the bow has been taken by the enemy. Following a trail of pirates and slavers, Dante, Blays, and a clan of norren warriors strike deep into enemy lands.
Until now, their rebellion's been kept secret. But their quest for the bow leads Dante and Blays to an all-out assault on the personal manor of powerful lord Cassinder. Enraged, Cassinder will have his revenge on norren and Narashtovik alike--and this time, there will be no stopping the engines of war.

Edward W. Robertson
When Edward W. Robertson writes, he doesn't just build worlds—he watches them burn and rise again. From crumbling civilizations in his Breakers series to the epic, war-torn landscapes of The Cycle of Arawn and The Cycle of Galand, his work pulses with tension, grit, and the kind of moral complexity that keeps readers up long past midnight.
Robertson first emerged on the fantasy and science fiction scene with a quiet but deliberate presence. That presence soon erupted into a million books sold, a USA Today bestseller title, and accolades including Audie and Voice Arts Award nominations. But behind the numbers is a writer who has never shied away from asking the hard questions: What happens when the world ends? What does power cost? And can redemption survive in the aftermath?
The Cycle of Arawn
Dante Galand is young. Penniless. Alone. But devoted to learning the dark magic of his world.
His quest will take him from the city gutters to a foreign land of sorcerers. To a war for independence. And finally, to another war—this time, for his people’s very survival.
The Cycle of Arawn consists of three books. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
