The Book of Talents Series

Volume I of The Book of Talents

The Talents' Legacy

​

 

   100 Years have passed since The Great War. Only four of the once mighty Panids remain, The Panids’ Children have become myth and The Field’s Cap limits the ability of The Orders and their Talents. But the past has not been fully laid to rest.

 

   From the start Cali and Aran’s apprenticeship to The Naddier Order doesn’t go well. Their mentors Carrick, Merren and The Panid Kellim find themselves caught up in a struggle to keep Cali safe as the remaining Panids’ Children, driven by ‘The Whispers’, surface from hiding to attempt her capture.

 

   Their lives are further complicated by the disgraced Talent Varin, sent by ‘The Whispers’ on a journey with far-reaching implications, and the deluded UruIldran Emperor Segat, who drags the south of Koa into a second war fought by Talents and the once redundant technology of powder weapons.

 

   With events spiralling out of control, Carrick and Merren struggle to keep Cali and Aran safe, form new alliances and fight a war 100 years of peace has ill-prepared them for. As Segat’s unstoppable legions advance, Kellim must seek out The Beholder to learn more about the return of The Panids’ Children, unravel the mystery of Varin’s quest and come to terms with revelations about his own past and the disastrous legacy of The Panids.
