Dangerous days have fallen upon Crynophia. For 600 years, peace has ruled this small continent ever since the vile Nephilim were banished from Nagala Sortis; the Lands of the North. For over one and a half millennia the Nephilim harshly ruled Nagala Sortis until they were forcibly evicted from Nagala Sortis by their defeat at Thornogina. Having lost their homeland, the Nephilium traveled to Sinagala Sortis, which refers to the "Lands of the South," the land beyond the Califanu and Mentu mountains that divide Crynophia in half. It is there that the Nephilim dwell, always dreaming of the day they would return to their ancient home in the north. With the recent death of their king, King Umalaw, and the setting up of their new king, Umalaw's son, Noomsay, an ancient and evil prophecy surfaces. A prophecy that predicts the return of the Nephilim to their old kingdom...and a chance to reap havoc upon those who banished them long ago. The fate of all Crynophia now rests in the hands of a diverse band of Nagala Sortis inhabitants, and it is into this time of trouble that two young Elfumans, Tamall Stonehead and Limlee Thimblewood are thrust. With the help of Leopold the Dreamer, a Watcher from Middleton, and other inhabitants of Nagala Sortis they stand against King Noomsay and his "Unholy Union" of Dark Elves, Ogres, and the men of Sargonis.There are the Orcs, both the black and the red, not to mention...well, maybe I have said too much. I will leave off my description here and I hope that you enjoy this, the first book in the Crynophian Chronicles trilogy, the Golden Orb.
