The Ring of Darkness

by T.R. Michaud

Nestled amongst the large, oak trees known as the Border Forest is a small, farming community, Oakhurst Village. The people of the place live in relative peace with only a problem arising once in a while from one of the wood's native animals, but at the beginning of spring things seem to change. Villagers and folk traveling through the area start disappearing, and a chaos seems to take hold of the land during the darkness of night rendering Oakhurst under siege from someone or something preying on its people.

Captain Woodrow of the local militia orders a patrol to be sent out to investigate the happenings but even the twelve-man unit comes up missing. The dark enigma seems to dig its claws in deeper until a group of fresh, young adventurers are hired by the captain: Calvin; the honor-bound knight, Faith; the young, upcoming mage, Devis; the mysterious, elven fighter, and Moric; the self-proclaimed "locksmith."

Their mission;

"Find out who or what is behind all the disappearances." Is it a man-eating beast or something more sinister and dark?

I wrote this book so therefore I will not be biased and rate "The Ring of Darkness".

Utter shit. A bad dnd fanfiction that reads like it was taken from the notes of a dyslexic first grader. Grammar, punctuation, and pacing like the author’s never read a book before, characters so flat you could cut vegetables on them, and a plot so predictable the only surprising thing is that it somehow has 300+ pages. Don’t waste your time on this one, it doesn’t deserve you.

This book is well worth the read if you enjoy D&D.
It felt as though I was listening to a dungeon master tell an extremely detailed multi point of view campaign.
All the characters are enjoyable and I felt as though I grew to understand each one.

Yes there are some errors, but I don't think it took from the story at all.
