Paperback / softback
Description
The Era Of Darkness... A world facing annihilation. Epic battles and gritty action. Dark magic and horrendous monstrosities. Impossible odds. Defeat and despair.
Bloodfury & Fear is a short tale from the Era Of Darkness, set just before the demonic invasion... A taste of the carnage to come.
In a small scouting camp, a group of Callis soldiers are relaxing at night. They drink, eat, gamble and fill their tent with laughter...
Until a fearsome intruder arrives to turn a peaceful night into a scene of bloody violence. This vengeful apparition is a Vere and his fearsome size is matched only by his merciless ferocity.
Cries of laughter become bellows of exertion and shrieks of agony. Razor-edged blades flash in the firelight.
For one young Callis named Corfel, this night will be a turning point in his life. He will be changed forever by the conflict - if he survives at all.
Bloodfury& Fear is a standalone story taken from Era Of Darkness Volume I. This is the Extended Version, with two additional bonus chapters. Both war-torn volumes of the Era Of Darkness Saga are now available, plus the first in the Survival spin-off series: 'Slaughter At Ghastar'.
Reviews from this author's fantasy releases:
...for the Era Of Darkness saga:
"Wow! The world Ian Thompson created for Era of Darkness is immense, and his cast of characters is huge. Luckily, Mr. Thompson is a fantastic guide. He drops you in the middle of the action and leads you through a world bracing itself against its inevitable demise. The action is intense, the battles are brutal, and the characters are complex and very real. What a great story! ...I did thoroughly enjoy this story, and I will be picking up Era of Darkness Volume II: Extinction. If you love heart-pumping action and vicious battles, you have to read this book. However, I must warn. The action is brutal and gruesome. If you're squeamish about blood (or organs exploding or bones shattering), you may want to avoid this one."
"...vividly descriptive with an almost metered artistry..."
"...Fast and furious paced action fantasy. Great characters that you really care for. Battles are huge and bloodthirsty. Cool races and well-designed monsters. A cracking-good read... "
"I was impressed by the quality of the storytelling... an enthralling mix... a solid read"
"...intense battles, incredible dark magic... so many twists and turns... I loved it"
"I was completely sucked in and captivated from the first page"
"...mixture of fantasy, mystery, loyalty that make it a one of a kind story"
"Wonderful characters and an even better story"
"This was my first peek at this series and author. I'll definitely be reading more from him. This is an interesting short read. Lots of action and sometimes gory descriptive details. It's a nice introduction to a couple of the characters and really sets the stage for what's to come. This appears to be a vast new world that I'm ready to learn more about."
...for the Hector Reborn saga:
"...I couldn't put it down. Amongst all the fantasy and action, the strongest part of the story is Hector's character. He is governed by honour and loyalty - which not only leads him into conflict, but leads him to cause a disaster. We see many sides of him, from his personal strength, to his heartbreak and loss, to a desperation to fix the terrible things he causes... to him being almost destroyed by another twist in the novel... very cleverly written - I highly recommend this book."
