Description

From one of Britain’s foremost fantasy writers comes this Tolkienesque series opener about destiny, war, betrayal—and the return of a long-dead hero
 
John Daker dreams of other worlds, and a name: Erekosë. He finds the strength to answer the call, travelling to a strange land ruled by the aging King Rigenos of Necranal.
 
Humanity is united in a desperate fight against the inhuman Eldren, and John must fight with them. But the actions of his brethren turn his loyalties—and, as Erekosë, he will take a terrible revenge.

    The "hero" from the beginning (since the author writes in first person) is whiny, Harlequin romance arrogant, and makes the most insipid decisions imaginable. He's a man baby with incredible powers until he slips one time in battle and gets knocked out. In an age and on a planet that apparently has no common sense whatsoever, there isn't even enough brains to develop politics. This book is a crime against all authors attempting to make a real story with real people plagued with real issues. I only got through this by laughing at how ridiculous the premise was. Comic books have better writers and Moor o k is CELEBRATED for this tripe?!?
