Rooms of Ruin: A Dark Fantasy Novel

by Erik Henry Vick

Overview

Winner of the 2019 Readers' Favorite International Book Awards Gold Medal for Fantasy!
Does destiny set the course life will take, or does life dictate a man's fate?

He rescued his family from the clutches of the Dark Queen, but in doing so, Hank Jensen trapped them in her realm. She has rallied her armies against him…and sent a traitor to guide him. Enigmatic figures swathed in dark power grapple to manipulate the threads of Hank's life, but they've forgotten one thing…

The Blood of the Isir throbs in Hank's veins, and he has the power to control his own destiny—if he can only learn to master it.

Only one path leads home, and it runs straight through the Rooms of Ruin.

★★★★★ "I haven’t encountered a new author I’ve enjoyed so much since I first discovered Stephen King all those years ago, nor been enraptured by a series like this since the DT series." —Amazon Reviewer
