What is ancient can never die
In an age long past, humanity possessed incredible powers. Energies both fearsome and immeasurable that flowed in a seemingly endless abundance, but that was a time barely recounted. An age known only as the Era of Darkness. A time when humanity neared extinction as legions of beasts ruled the Earth, demanding no less than the greatest of arcane might in order for a dwindling species to survive.
Today, the human empires had reattained that long-lost greatness. Even though the energies of old had slowly diminished, the advent of technology has rekindled ways into the foregone arts. Progress reshapes society daily, while the many threats of the old ages still prowls at the borders.
In this ever-changing world, Young Leo Pryde seeks his own fate. Even though it may lead into the heart of all that plagues humanity, his will is strong. He wants to fight back. Down to his core he desires to drive the beasts of the Taint into oblivion, without knowing the dire cost of such altruistic pursuits.
The one true authority will rise
And no one will be left unscathed

About the author
J.L. Louw
2 books4 followersI've always viewed Science Fiction with a sense of fascination. Somehow it pushed the boundaries of human limitations, then I've always loved Fantasy as much, if not more. It always evoked a a sense of dreams come to life.
My love for science and fantasy have been with me for as long as I can remember, especially the blurry lines between the one and the other. Growing up on a healthy dose of fiction, my life steadily revolved around stories, especially those that gave my thoughts a mystical safe-haven. Over the greater part of my life the stories that occupied my mind slowly built into a huge fantastical universe. It forms a living, breathing part of me, and it's a part of me that I've always wanted to share with the rest of the world.

EverKnight by J.L. Louw
Leo Pyre joins the Rangers of Albion, soldiers of The Sovereigns. He learns how to fight and meets some of his fellow soldiers. He is part of the Incandents, super smart people who can bring about inner energy inside of themselves. Soon they are faced with dark forces, it will become a fight to survive.
I liked Leo, he is a young man who wants to do go, at any cost. The story has quite a few characters with alternating chapters, which did help in learning of each person. I liked the evil creatures they faced, they added at mystical/magical element to the story.
I did find the story a but slower paced than I prefer. Also there is a lot going on, which for me an avid read,(I) found no problem following. But those who are not devote readers may find it a bit confusing. Overall I liked the originality of the story and I feel that those who like fantasy an love to read will enjoy EverKnight
