Description: Age of Death by Michael J. Sullivan, Simonetti Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Winter blankets the land, and more than just hope has died. Prevented from invading the Fhrey homeland by the tower of Avempartha, the western army seeks a way across the Nidwalden River before the fane obtains the secret of dragons. As time runs out for both humanity and the mystic Suri, the only chance for the living rests with the dead. Having made their fateful choice, can a handful of misfits do the impossible, or are they forever lost to an inescapable grave? Do gods truly exist? Is it possible to know the future? And what lies beyond the veil of death?In the tradition of Virgils Aeneid, Dantes Divine Comedy, and Miltons Paradise Lost, the most epic of tales transcend the world of the living. Its time to see what lies in Elans Age of Death.From Michael J. Sullivan (New York Times, USA Today, and Washington Post best-selling author), comes the second to the last installment in the epic fantasy series, Legends of the First Empire. The series chronicles a pivotal point in Elans history when humans rise against the Fhrey who they once saw as gods. Set 3,000 years before the Riyria tales, Legends is a stand-alone fantasy series which is independent of all other Elan stories. That said, if you do listen to the other books, youll see lies revealed and the truth about historical figures unmasked. Author Biography Michael J. Sullivan is a New York Times (3 titles), USA Today (3 titles), and Washington Post hardcover (2 titles) bestselling author, and no one is more surprised by those facts than he. When just a boy, Michael found a typewriter in the basement of a friends house, inserted a blank piece of paper, and typed, "It was a dark and stormy night." He was just ten years old and mimicking the only writer he knew at the time: Snoopy. That spark ignited a flame, and Michaels desire to fill blank pages became a life-long obsession. As an adult, Michael spent more than ten years developing his craft by studying authors such as Stephen King, Ernest Hemingway, and John Steinbeck. During that time, he wrote thirteen novels but garnered no interest from the publishing industry. Since insanity is repeating the same action while expecting a different result, he made the rational choice and quit, vowing never to write creatively again.Never turned out to be too long for Michael, and after a decade, he returned to the keyboard in his forties, but with one condition: He wouldnt seek publication. Instead, he wrote a series of books that had been building in his head during his hiatus. His first reading love was fantasy, and he hoped to foster a similar reaction in his then thirteen-year-old daughter who struggled due to dyslexia. After reading the third book of this series, his wife insisted that the novels had to "get out there." When Michael refused to jump back onto the query-go-round, Robin took over the publication tasks, and she has run the business side of his writing ever since.Currently, Michael is a hybrid author with nineteen novels released through big-five publishers, a small press, or indie-produced.The Riyria Revelations: 6 books sold as 3 two-book omnibus editions from Orbit (fantasy imprint of Hachette Book Group) — Theft of Swords • Rise of Empire • Heir of NovronThe Riyria Chronicles: 2 books released from Orbit, 2 indie-produce, 1 in production — The Crown Tower • The Rose and the Thorn • The Death of Dulgath • The Disappearance of Winters Daughter • Drumindor (release date TBD)Legends of the First Empire: 3 books released from Del Rey (fantasy imprint of Penguin Random House) and 3 indie-published) — Age of Myth • Age of Swords • Age of War •Age of Legend •Age of Death • Age of EmpyreThe Rise and Fall Trilogy: all indie-published — Nolyn • Farilane • Esrahaddon (coming 2023)Standalone science fiction thriller: released by Tachyon Publications — Hollow WorldMichaels stories center around unlikely heroes who rise to the occasion when history comes knocking. Unlike much of modern fantasy, which focuses on dark themes and anti-heroes, Michaels stories are optimistic and infused with humor, fast-paced plotting, and epic adventure.
