The Sorcerer's Saga

Ayden Dracre, youngest son of a notorious sorcerer family, has a problem: he is terrible at dark magic. Every attempt to cause mayhem backfires. When his family has had enough of his failures, he is given one last chance — defeat the greatest wizard in the land. The trouble is he cannot fight with magic and does not want to hurt anyone. His only hope is a set of very unlikely allies.

Ayden is content with his magical studies until Merlin leaves Caldaca to find a cure for his curse. While waiting, Ayden makes a mistake that shakes his confidence in his own magic. When he discovers that both his aunt and Merlin are in danger, he is pushed further than ever before — facing two powerful enemies and a dark presence, unsure who he can trust.

Ayden's reputation as a curse breaker is growing — perhaps too fast. When Dessa warns him that his mother is hunting him and others like him, he faces his toughest quest yet. With spies on his trail and something deeply wrong with magic itself, Ayden must rely on wisdom over power to survive. Dark family secrets surface, and he learns that darkness is far easier to give in to than resist.

Ayden is about to face an adversary that not even dragons can destroy — and this time, more than his own life is at risk. When the future of Caldaca depends on it, the Sjau must set aside their differences to save magic itself. Merlin's powers of divination grow, but whether they will be enough against his greatest enemy yet remains uncertain. Time is running out.

Ayden and Merlin realize his reputation as a curse breaker does more harm than good and decide to travel — only to be captured by assassins the next morning. What begins as a quest to clear up a misunderstanding and locate a missing wizard becomes a gauntlet of deadly traps, monstrous enemies, and alliances more dangerous than the threats they face.

Ayden and Merlin are hoping for a quiet period at the castle when Nimue arrives with news that Gmork has gone missing. To save the people they love, they must obtain the heart of Baltezore — a dangerous weapon against dragons. The quest will test not just their abilities and wisdom, but their hearts, as old enemies, terrible curses, and dark secrets close in from every direction.
