Discover the Next Bestseller from Samuel Musick!
Musick Publishing is proud to announce the up-and-coming novel, Shadows of Madness by Samuel Musick. This will be Samuel Musick's debut novel.
A thief turned soldier.
A forbidden magic.
An ancient artifact capable of ending the world—again.
Destin never wanted to be a hero. He wanted coin, anonymity, and the chance to stay alive. But after a chance encounter forces him into the royal army, he’s sent on a mission he can’t refuse: find the Deorum, a relic so powerful it nearly destroyed civilization a thousand years ago.
In the neighboring nation of Rathgor, magic is wielded through the Meld—enchanted amulets crafted in secret rituals only a few dare to perform. With the help of Clara, a Vasha acolyte, Destin and his companions uncover fragments of the lost past and whispers of the Remnants, the mysterious group who last stopped the Deorum’s devastation.
But they are not the only ones hunting the artifact. The Order of Raethis seeks to resurrect the tyrant king who once used the Deorum to bring the world to its knees. Will they find it in time, or will the Order set the world back a thousand years?
The game has changed. The world is watching.
And the Deorum is waiting.
