*ANCIENT MAGIC.
MODERN STEEL.
"Tell me who you ride beside, and I'll tell you who you are."*
- Falconsrealm proverb
In the second installment of Joseph Malik's bestselling Outworlders saga, former stuntman and Olympic saber hopeful Jarrod Torrealday faces a ghost from his tortured past and a war he thought he'd averted.
Now Lord Protector of Falconsrealm and a knight in the secretive Order of the Stallion, Jarrod awakens one glorious fall morning to find his castle under siege and his alliances shattered as a new threat rises in the west: a revolution driven by a sorceress wielding forbidden magic and led by an unstoppable swordsman from the world he left behind. Worse yet, the weapons Jarrod brought with him from Earth are rocking the country on its heels and threatening everything he came to save.
At a candlelit crossroads of dark sorcery and espionage, Jarrod must choose whether to side with a sworn enemy for the good of the realm, or gamble his life and the future of the kingdom in a showdown of ancient magic against modern steel.
Vivid swordplay and riveting intrigue combine with magical realism and irreverent humor in the adrenaline-fueled sequel to Joseph Malik's critically acclaimed fantasy bestseller DRAGON'S TRAIL.
The New Magic is the second installment in the Outworlders series, but can be read as a stand-alone with Book I, Dragon's Trail, serving as the origin story of Jarrod Torrealday.
----
"The New Magic is epic portal fantasy at its finest; brutal, hilarious, and with a cutting wit that's practically unmatched in recent fantasy showings . . . another home run."
