The Stonebound Brothers: The Sundering (Book One)

By Ronal Joseph

TWO BROTHERS. ONE BLOODLINE. A WORLD TORN ASUNDER.

They were born from an impossible union: the raw, primal strength of a Barbarian Warlord and the world-shaking power of a Legendary Mage. But on the night the sky turned to ash, their legacy was shattered.

To save them from their own flesh and blood-a seductive sorceress who traded her soul for the dark arts-their mother gifted them two enchanted necklaces. Two gems pulsing with a "terrifying purpose." Then, she was gone, and the brothers were ripped apart by fate.

One was forged in shadow. The other was hardened by the earth.

The Abducted: Raised in the cold embrace of the Dark Arts, transformed into a living weapon of the Empire. He knows only the blade and the kill.

The Escaped: Lost to the world and raised by a humble farmer, unaware that the blood of a Warlord courses through his veins-until the gems begin to glow.

Fifteen years have passed. The land is screaming under the weight of a brutal war. Two lethal warriors are walking a collision course, each wearing the only thing in existence that can bring them together... or tear the world apart.
