Sword-and-Sorcery Novel Tackles Most Dramatic Story of All
Good and evil battle amid fantasy backdrop of magical creatures

LONGWOOD, FL-Destiny doesn’t happen by accident; it is seized by those who are willing to risk losing everything, including safety, reputation, and even their own lives. Such is the reigning principle in Douglas J. Tawlks’ Defenders of the Breach: In Order for Light to Prevail There Must Be a Violent Engagement with the Darkness (paperback, 978-1-60266-964-2), an action-packed novel that will inspire readers to press on in the face of both personal doubt and external obstacles to face the spiritual forces that seek to rob them of their freedom.

The fantasy epic centers on the city of Talinor, which lies in the path of an invading horde that is in league with the Shadow Wraiths, wielders of the dark magic. Once a mighty kingdom, Talinor is now home to a faithless people whose temples of worship lay desecrated. Desperate to defend his own, their king seeks aid from the mysterious Zarish priests, who claim to have the power to protect Talinor from the approaching darkness. Meanwhile, Cyle, the king’s servant, reluctantly embarks on a quest to seek out a mystical band of forgotten warriors uniquely gifted to stand against the dark magic. But will it be enough?

Says Tawlks, “This book is first and foremost a novel. It is a book filled with action, adventure and insight into the invisible battle that exists around us every day. It uses the fantasy genre of elves, dwarves, and other magical creatures to tell the most dramatic story of all, the battle of the kingdom of God against the kingdom of darkness.”
