About The Dance of the Dead A Standalone Epic Fantasy of Dark Heroes and Desperate Bargains
A standalone heroic fantasy by best-selling author James Maxwell, set in an entirely new world of magic and darkness. Malgannis Vandryden was once the greatest general the world had ever known-until a tragic death condemned him to an eternity of regret in the underworld. Generations later, Princess Coraline Vandryden's life is torn apart by the onslaught of Graven Callow, a brutal conqueror bent on destroying everything her kingdom stands for. As Graven's army lays waste to her homeland and brutally targets her family, soon nothing is strong enough to stand against him. What Coraline needs is a miracle. She grew up on stories of her ancestor Malgannis - some dark, some glorious - but now, in her moment of utmost peril, a black priest offers her a forbidden choice. If she sacrifices her own future, she can summon the damned general back to the mortal world. Coraline must weigh her kingdom's survival against the cost of awakening a soul marked by blood and darkness. Some heroes are better left in legend.
