Product Description

Product Description

Life is good for David Conner. He has a great job, plenty of money, and he's just met the woman of his dreams. But his dreams turn into nightmares when he finds himself on Lucasia--a magical world of shapeshifters, dragons, faeries, and other creatures of myth--where he is the key to victory in a struggle between opposing forces: one sworn to save the world, the other intent on its destruction.
 
If he is to survive, David must learn the rules of this strange new world, master its powerful magic forces, and decide who is friend and who is foe.
 
But is David the world's savior . . . or the cause of its ruin?

Imagine if you would two worlds joined together by Springs of Power. The Power in question allows magic to be shaped into spells and werewolves to take on the true form of the wolf. Our world, the Earth, has limited magic due to the lack of Springs. But this does not stop our business consultant, David Conner, from being drawn across into the magical realm of Lucasia.

David has dreams, not the type of wealth and prestige but of unicorns and wolves. In one such dream he is bitten by a wolf and wakes up to find that everything is just fine. That is, until the moon comes up. Rapidly, our totally bemused hero of the piece is drawn into a world so different from that which he knows where he has to learn to trust the very wolf that bit him in his dream.

I thought at first I was going to read another werewolf tale: yes and no. David is also a Pureblood, able to draw on the Power o f the Springs and shape spells. He is also wanted as a sacrifice to open a portal for an ancient wyrm who has all but lost its mind listening to the Stone. Add to this a whole bunch of double-crossing dragons, shape shifters and bandits and you soon get the picture of a world locked in an ever repeating cycle of wars between the demonic Phantans and the human populace.

The land of Lucasia is under the control of a powerful human witch, Alexsa, who is determined at any cost to open the portal to the Phantans and gain control of the Power and plunge the world into darkness and chaos. It was Alexsa that lured David into Lucasia, Alexsa that wants absolute Power, and Alexsa that wishes to control everyone. What she has not understood about David is his desire to regain the woman of his dreams from her clutches and his determination to do what is right.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommend 25 Feb 2011
By Marie - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have to admit, this is not the type of book I usually read and I bought it in support of the author and greyhound adoption but I enjoyed it from start to finish! I couldn't put it down, I was hooked. The characters were wonderful and I hope to see them again in another installment. Mik, you're off to a great start so keep going!

What a great book to read! The imagery is just wonderful; the characters are likable, and well developed. The book is very hard to put down and easy to get into. If you like fantasy then you will like this book, no doubt about it! It's definitely not just for the fantasy lover readers, but to all that just like to read. Anticipating the next creation!

5.0 out of 5 stars I WANT MORE!!! 20 Jan 2011
By Janet Bizjak - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Incredible book! Great character development. This is a must read for any fantasy reader or any reader period! What should have been a leisurely week long read turned into an overnight marathon to finish the book! I couldn't put it down.
I hope there's more where this one came from. I am looking forward to finding more books by this author. Can't recommend this one enough!
