The Sword of Palos (Tales of Taramoor, Book 1)

Since the beginning of time, Palos and Ssythe have battled each other, good versus evil. Palos banished the forces of Ssythe into the Abyss centuries ago through the Doomsgate Portal. Now, a plot has emerged to open the Doomsgate Portal and unleash Ssythe's minions upon the land of Taramoor. A prophecy states that one of humble origin will close and destroy the Doomsgate Portal. When a young lad named Merrick discovers a wounded warrior near his village, it is revealed that this warrior may be the one spoken of in the prophecy. Follow Merrick's adventures as he learns about the dangers that await beyond his peaceful village, the value of friendship, the meaning of life, and most importantly, the power of love.
