… as well as a strange prophecy, and anyone who dares speak of either, dies.
A new enemy enters
the Valla arena, but this one is as old as time and seeks a forbidden place.
The terrible source of Valla power is uncovered. As friends and family are
murdered, Torrullin reveals the truth about the Valla Dragon. He hurtles into
battle when his twin sons are kidnapped, and takes with him into danger a
pilot, a navigator and an innocent girl - they are the Dalrish seeking escape
from Xen III.
Another truth rears
up, the tale of the Nine who fled into the Forbidden Zone with a strange taliesman
in the shape of a dragon. Quilla knows who the fire creatures are; the Q’lin’la
fled them in ancient time. They are the Kallanon, the Glittering Darkness.
“There are dragons
in my future,” Torrullin once tells Quilla, and that future is now.
War erupts on a
world no more than a circle on an ancient map. There Torrullin discovers who
his sons really are, Taranis of the Guardians confronts his inner demons,
Bartholamu of the Siric faces his arch-nemesis, Q’lin’la and Kallanon are
thrown into the same melting pot, an ancient emperor speaks again, the new Lady
of Life is born, the Dalrish have a profound effect on Torrullin, and Vannis
seeks revenge.
The Kallanon Scales
is an epic journey into the realms of time and legend, and forever alters the
future.

*********************************************************************************
The Forbidden Zone is behind them; the wars
of attrition return to Valaris. In a golden city waits a temple raised from a
vision, and one night in every year a star shines through the aperture overhead.
This is a connection to the world of Nemisin, the first homeworld. In this
place where stars meet Torrullin must choose life and death for his sons. The
scythe, however, forever silences someone dear to him; is he paying for his
choice in the temple?
As the universe searches for the Light in
all its brilliance, seeking peace, Torrullin begins to see himself as a prince
among demons and therefore decides to change the rules. Death, after all, is
not an end.
Too many lives have been lost.
Too many hearts have been broken.
Sometimes the only way to find peace is to
lose oneself.
Two thousand years have passed since the epic explosion in what is now called the Black Valley. Torrullin is in the invisible realms and the Darak Or is with him, and the universe enjoys a time of unprecedented peace.
A new threat
rises on the cursed horizon.
It is time
for the Sleeper Sword to awaken.
Ready to
return to Valaris, Torrullin cannot exit the otherworld without aid. Samuel is his
kinsman, his fate forged to the greatest sorcerer the cosmos has ever known. He
swears to hold his hand out to Torrullin, to aid him home.
The old
players gather for a renewal of the fateful games. This time the duel between a
father and son will wound many, including Valla kin. Torrullin needs to build a
relationship with his grandson Tannil, save Fay from hell, rescue Saska from
captivity, and find the means to end Tymall. Their contest will reverberate
through the spaces.
In an
endless adventure of urgency and drama, the on-going saga of Torrullin’s role
as saviour is as a sharp as the sword he reclaims and as blunt as his acerbic
tongue. Wherever he goes someone will be hurt. To love him is to be ruined, to
hate him is to be ruined.
Perhaps true
catharsis lies in the realm of dreams.
Torrullin must release his demons.
To stand at the edge of the abyss, he must retrieve his innocence. He will not
stand alone. Guiding him into and through another realm is Lowen Dalrish, the
child-woman Torrullin saw as the nemesis of his future.
Another arises, the Warlock’s secret
ally, a creature nursing vengeance since ancient days. After Margus breaks
oath, this creature’s manipulation is set free, and a new army invades.
The animated spirit, according to legend,
is the potion of forever, and his name is Elixir, embodied in one strong enough
to see, hear, taste, smell and touch everything everywhere in order to mete out
justice. If Torrullin survives the dream realm, does it mean he is strong
enough to accept this duty? His world, his people and his loved ones require
his strength, as he needs it to face the might of what lies beneath ancient
Grinwallin.
After all that went before,
Torrullin will face the power of stones raised when time began, before
he may bow from the arena. Torrullin prepares, after all, to meet the dark man
of his visions.
The time for meeting is now close.
