Champion of the Gods: The First Book in the Champion Trilogy

The war is over. It has been more than a year since the war-weary soldiers of Oceania repulsed the overwhelming might of Caritea. Believing themselves to be completely victorious, they have fallen into complacency, unaware that death and destruction await them. King Argyle of Caritea, reeling from his losses in the last war and desperate for revenge, has made a dangerous pact with a foul and powerful entity from beyond the Void. For the first time in ages, evil goblins and trolls have set foot on the human continent, joining forces with the malevolent power that threatens Oceania. The only man who can warn Oceania of the dark conspiracy is dead, at the hands of a brother-in-arms. Thrust between the two armies is Rescat, an outlaw and renegade pupil of Oceania's elite Military Academy. In attempting to escape from a life on the run, he finds himself caught between Oceania - the hated country that turned him into an outlaw - and an evil that threatens to take over the world... an evil that even the gods cannot withstand.
