The first book in the new epic fantasy series readers are comparing to David Gemmell and Raymond E. Feist. A war fueled by the dark powers of forbidden sorcery is about to engulf the Ascendant Empire. Agerastian heretics, armed with black fire and fueled by bitter hatred, seek to sever the ancient portals that unite the empire - and in so doing destroy it. Asho--a squire with a reviled past--sees his liege, the Lady Kyferin, and her meager forces banished to an infamous ruin. Beset by tragedy and betrayal, demons and an approaching army, the fate of the Kyferins hangs by the slenderest of threads. Asho realizes that their sole hope of survival may lie hidden within the depths of his scarred soul--a secret that could reverse their fortunes and reveal the truth behind the war that wracks their empire. Unpredictable, fast paced, and packed with unforgettable characters, The Path of Flames is the first installment in a gripping new epic fantasy series. Grab your copy today!

Interesting.........very very interesting, up until the last page, I am still guessing, thinking and re-thinking on this book, we have new creatures never seen before, naugrimm, kragh(this one I am really excited) and another take on a magic system(reminds me of dark sun, magic uses the life force of anything alive, the more you use magic, the more you destroy your surroundings!!) and knights......who doesn't love knights, armored, noble, a twisted opinion on their own self worth and the people they govern!!!!
All in all a truly new twist on the fantasy genre......Book Two here I come!!!!
