Torjen

About the Book

A legion has threatened to conquer a distant world, its ruler having declared himself a god. Having already conquered a race of sorcerers, he intends to rule the world with an iron fist, ushering in a new age of domination. He and his armies seem invincible. On a small, unknown island in the middle of the ocean, the wisest, smartest and fiercest of warriors and adventurers meet to discern an alternate future. Their only possibility: a mysterious and ancient artifact known as the Orb of Torjen, a device which, according to legend, guarantees victory in battle. But as they trek across their world toward the object, they face monsters, curses, dragons, demons and supernatural storms that rage against them. And while the tyrant watches them from afar, they are forced to deal with adversity and face the possibility of betrayal. A novel fraught with internal struggles and times when faith alone is the key to survival, Torjen shows what happens when a person is forced to do as the map to the orb commands: to face your own darkness within.

About the Author

Danny Cove has always been a storyteller, and for the first time he has presented a written account of what he’s seen in his dreams. Torjen, the fi rst segment of the Torjen Trilogy, is based upon a dream he had in his youth, a dream of knights and monsters, of trips across an unknown and hazardous world. A recent graduate of Indiana University, where he earned a degree in Philosophy and Religious Studies with minors in both Geography and Astrophysics, he has begun to use his writings to explore the universe, from the outermost reaches of its cosmic origin to the innermost workings of the human soul and its relationship to the divine. But despite his dreams and philosophical inquiries, a part of him has always remained in his enigmatic hometown of King’s End, the place where history literally walks the hallowed earth.
