The Pagalan Chronicles: The Final Quest Book 3

by Andrew Houlston

Overview

A fractured world. A buried weapon. One last chance to save it all.

After uncovering the truth of his lineage and enduring a journey filled with loss, power, and betrayal, Morganuke stands at a crossroads. The land of Pagalan is in chaos. Denesthear, the ancient city of the Patronese, is on the brink of collapse. And the enemies threatening to destroy everything he loves are more determined—and more ruthless—than ever.

But this time, Morganuke is no longer running from his destiny. With newfound strength and hard-won wisdom, he leads a final mission across war-torn lands, forgotten ruins, and dangerous alliances to recover the one weapon that could turn the tide: the legendary emerald sword. But finding it is only half the battle. To claim his role as the rightful heir and restore balance, he must confront the past—his father's legacy, the truth about his companions, and the darkest parts of himself.

As the forces of rebellion and control collide, Morganuke and his friends must risk everything in a last stand that will decide not only the fate of Denesthear but the future of Pagalan itself.

The Final Quest is the powerful conclusion to The Pagalan Chronicles—a gripping blend of epic fantasy, light sci-fi, and emotional coming-of-age storytelling. With high-stakes battles, long-awaited reunions, and a final twist of fate, Andrew Houlston delivers a finale full of heart, hope, and hard choices.

Because some heroes aren't born—they're forged.

About the Author

I grew up in a small village community in Devon, England. I left home at nineteen to join the Royal Air Force as an airfield technician, where my life significantly changed. Having been used to a close-knit and closed community lifestyle, I now ventured into the big wide world. After serving in the Air Force for nine years, I continued my career and post graduate qualification in technology, initially in defence and subsequently in commercial projects. This took me to many different places and cultures in our world.

I got married to the most amazing, beautiful, intelligent woman and we had three children together. Our children, who are now grown up and have families of their own, have been a great inspiration for my writing.

As I became older and wiser, I chose to spend some of my busy life reading science fiction and fantasy novels as a welcome break from the challenges of future technology. It inspired me to create imaginary worlds of my own based on pure imagination and my own life experiences. World full of interesting and divers characters facing problems that would not look out of place today in our world. I always wanted to write my own stories about these worlds, but there was never the time. After retiring from the fast-paced profession in the high-tech industry, I focused on finding a way for others to share those worlds with me. My story telling seemed an ideal way to do that.
