Book Description:
Thousands of years ago, the realm
of Ashur was drowned by Darian, Harbinger of the god Orijin, to save it from
the evil Red Harbinger, Jahmash. But the prophecies say Jahmash will return—and
only Darian’s chosen Descendants, those who bear a black line on their face,
can save mankind.
Baltaszar: An untried lad from a
hidden village. He must find the House of Darian to learn how to use his
mysterious powers.
Marshall: The last of a race of
warriors slaughtered by Jahmash’s army. Will the other Descendants help him
avenge his family and his race?
Prince Garrison: He spent years
following his father, the king’s orders to kill all who bear the mark of
Darian—even though he bears it himself. Can the other Descendants accept him?
Or will they kill him?
Time is running short for the
Descendants. Hunted by the people they are supposed to protect, can they save
Ashur from its greatest threat: The Red Harbinger?
About
the Author:
Khalid Uddin’s credits his
creative beginnings to comic books, specifically “The Amazing Spider-Man” and
“X-Men”. Throughout middle school and high school, his predominant hobby was
drawing his favorite characters, original characters, and just about everything
that was put in front of him. Once his college roommate introduced Khalid to
Robert Jordan’s “The Wheel of Time” book series (later completed by Brandon
Sanderson), his imagination evolved. He had already been familiar with
Tolkien’s vivid world, but Jordan’s was something new and far grander. Khalid
saw the beginnings of his own fantasy world coming to life, thanks to these
authors and to many of his own coming of age experiences.
When his head is not stuck in the
fantasy world, Khalid spends his free time with his wife Jen and adorable one
year-old daughter, Emme, who have both been incredibly generous with giving him
time to write and finish his novel. He makes a living with literature, being a
high school English teacher in New Jersey.
Khalid regularly posts updates
and news about his novel and the writing process on his website, www.khaliduddin.com

I think what sets this story apart from many other fantasy stories is that, while there is the magic aspect, it’s not really at the forefront. The characters and their issues are the main focus and they happen to be able to use magic. This story is more about the characters and their situations and decisions, rather than predominantly about magic.
