The Son of the Morning: Book One of The Nightfall Wars

The monsters only come at night. They are called nightlings—creatures out of legend, hungry for blood, waiting just beyond the light. Once before, they nearly destroyed the world and were defeated only by warriors chosen and empowered by the gods themselves. Now, the nightlings have returned. But the heroes who once stood against them are old and broken, shadows of what they were. And so the gods choose again. A castle servant many believe to be cursed. A musician whose songs can kill. A nobleman with a dark secret—and the gods’ own luck. Unprepared and unwilling, these three are thrown into a war they were never meant to fight. They must stand against monsters, cruel men, and gods who serve the Darkness itself. The world has one last chance. And its fate rests in the hands of those no one would have chosen. The Son of the Morning is a character-driven epic fantasy in the tradition of David Gemmell and Joe Abercrombie, from bestselling author Jacob Peppers.
