Buried Heroes: An Epic Fantasy Adventure (Age of Azuria 1)
5000 years ago, the world buried its heroes.
The magic hid, biding its time.
It knew she'd be worth waiting for.
Trapped within the walls of Io Keep, Iellieth’s one small rebellion has been wearing the amulet her elven father left with her mother before he was shipped away across the sea.
On the eve of her forced marriage to a cruel nobleman, her amulet repays her faithfulness. It doesn’t take her to her father.
No. When it awakens, it whisks her away to a frozen mountainside where an ancient warrior has been entombed in crystal for 5000 years.
Waiting for her.
The amulet binds Marcon’s soul to Iellieth and sends a ripple of warning across Azuria—a sign of hope for future allies, a mark of death for powerful, ancient enemies.
First among these new threats, an undead mage with a werewolf army turns his hunt toward the one with soul-awakening power. He must find her and stop her before she unravels all his dark mistress has been plotting since she saw the world’s heroes buried 5000 years before.
The half-elf finds shelter among a community of druids who must decide whether to aid the one they’ve been waiting for or to turn away her and the warrior. Her very presence spells doom for their community.
Iellieth has read about heroes the world depends upon for survival. She’s never been asked to be one. With her magic awakening, an ancient hero by her side, and lives depending upon her choices, fate chose her. Now, Iellieth must choose herself.
An epic quest filled with druidic magic, found family, and a slow-burn romance begins in Buried Heroes, book one in the Age of Azuria epic fantasy series.
