Description
Trapped for eons, a living legend has coerced and manipulated life in a
desperate bid to break out of its unjust imprisonment. But the hope of
attaining this goal falls into the incapable hands of Silvanus, a newly
created god with a broken leg, Taff, a powerful young wizard who is yet
to cast a successful spell, and Flyfar, a young eagle afraid of heights.
And to think, heroes were once the kind you could actually rely on.
Drawn
to the power of the legend, the powerful sorcerer, Dargalore, returns
after centuries of self-exile to claim what he believes is rightly his.
Allied with dark gods that corrupt the souls of the innocent, the world
waits with trepidation as the makings of a terrible war unfold that
threaten to devour all.
The Key of Souls tells of the great
quests undertaken by Silvanus, Taff and Flyfar as they struggle in a
world where friendships are scarce, but suffering is plenty amongst the
fear of the growing, cold darkness.
Praise and Reviews
"The one thing I can say about this book is that it's fun! It has a good
plot, nice pace and some really great action pieces. But it's also a
fantasy novel with "balls", shall we say. When these characters battle,
they go all out."
J.Edwards (Amazon.com)
"From the start we are introduced to the characters in such a
light-hearted, upbeat way that it's impossible not to want to know how
their lives develop along the way. And the author has created a
fantastic world to place them all in, as well as capture our
imaginations.

"This book is a must!Think of it as Robert Graves and a light touch of
Terry Pratchett; BUT make NO mistake, this is a fresh new talent - if
this is Mr Welsh's first attempt, then this guy is one to watch. Bravo
sir!
