Distant Lands

A young boy's world was shattered in a single night. Now, a hardened man fights for the hope of a dying land.

For years, Jack Creed has battled the dangers of the Wilds-untamed lands where beasts lurk and shadows whisper of darker things. As a border ranger, he's kept to the fringes of society, his past buried beneath scars and silence. But when a surge of brutal raids decimates villages and poisons the land itself, Jack and his companions are summoned to Baka Ton on a mission they cannot refuse.

Ancient magic is waking. The wizard Gwilim, once banished to Exiled, may be clawing his way back into the world. With the Barrier weakening, dark creatures spill across the Homeland, draining its life and devouring its people.

Joined by a mysterious blue being born of magic and science, a reluctant wizard, and an untested scholar, Jack must lead a perilous journey through cursed deserts and forgotten lands to stop a growing evil. But the greatest danger may not lie in what's ahead-but in the truths Jack must finally face.

A sweeping epic of sacrifice, resilience, and found family, Dark Horizon is the powerful beginning to a fantasy saga where honor meets heartbreak-and even the smallest ember of hope can ignite a revolution.
