GODFREY UNDER SIEGE

In a siege, there are no winners.

Mark Howard brings military fantasy to the next level in his second installment is an epic coming-of-age fantasy tale of tactics, war, battles, mythical creatures, sorcery, and magic. As the battle continues to rage in a mysterious world that echoes J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle Earth, the chosen one, Godfrey de Bastogne, must learn that the trials of political leadership in the kingdom require more than courage, duty, and honor.

The imminent threat to Azgald has been thwarted and the prophecy fulfilled. With the crusade’s conclusion at hand, Godfrey is left to defend the strategically important Olso Fortress from dark forces as his soldiers and knights yearn to return home. The young knight is faced with another crucial choice – raise his sword and return to reclaim his birthright, or begin a new life in Azgald with his betrothed, Madeline.

Victory may be at hand, but the battle for survival is just starting.

Danger still lurks beyond the castle walls. The High Warlord Alvir has neither forgiven nor forgotten his bitter defeat at Godfrey’s hands. With wounds serving as constant reminders of the humiliation at the hands of the crusaders, he decides to settle this once and for all and musters his forces to lay siege to Olso Fortress.

Will Madeline hone her magical abilities or continue to be thwarted by the castle’s new librarian? Can she forgive Godfrey for his failings, or will bitterness spell an end to their relationship before they come to their senses to prevent a traitor from throwing open the gates to the enemy and spelling their doom?
