[The Sorcerer's Ring 03] • A Feast of Dragons

From #1 Bestselling author Morgan Rice comes the debut of a dazzling new

fantasy series. _A Quest for Heroes_ revolves around the epic coming of age

story of one special boy, a 14 year old from a small village on the outskirts

of the Kingdom of the Ring. The youngest of four, the least favorite of his

father, hated by his brothers, Thorgrin senses he is different from the

others. He dreams of becoming a great warrior, of joining the King’s men and

protecting the Ring from the hordes of creatures on the other side of the

Canyon. When he comes of age and is forbidden by his father to try out for the

King’s Legion, he refuses to take no for an answer: he journeys out on his

own, determined to force his way into King’s Court and be taken seriously.

But King’s Court is rife with its own family dramas, power struggles,

ambitions, jealousy, violence and betrayal. King MacGil must choose an heir

from amongst his children, and the ancient Dynasty Sword, the source of all

their power, still sits untouched, waiting for the chosen one to arrive.

Thorgrin arrives as an outsider and battles to be accepted, and to join the

King’s Legion.

Thorgrin comes to learn he has mysterious powers he does not understand, that

he has a special gift, and a special destiny. Against all odds he falls in

love with the king’s daughter, and as their forbidden relationship blossoms,

he discovers he has powerful rivals. As he struggles to make sense of his

powers, the king’s sorcerer takes him under his wing and tells him of a mother

he never knew, in a land far away, beyond the Canyon, beyond even the land of

the Dragons.

Before Thorgrin can venture out and become the warrior he yearns to be, he

must complete his training. But this may be cut short, as he finds himself

propelled into the center of royal plots and counterplots, ones that may

threaten his love and bring him down—and the entire kingdom with him.

With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, _A Quest for

Heroes_ is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of

knights and dragons, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of

age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal. It is a tale of

honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery. It is a fantasy that

brings us into a world we will never forget, and which will appeal to all ages

and genders. It is 82,000 words.
