The Door to the Shadows: Book Two of the Landsaga

Twenty-five years have passed since Thomas Pitworth defeated the evil sorcerer, Arkaelion, at Dorik-Nur. Since then, he has married Melissa Freeman and had a daughter, Mati. One night, news of a new evil comes via Thalik, a survivor of that first Quest. He and Thomas leave to investigate, and discover that Mati, too, has involved herself.

Thus begins the sequel to Ravenscroft, with many twists and turns, reinterpretations of the runes that foretold the original prophecy (melithera ger lilimer -- he who will come), and a host of adventures. It is an epic story about the old vs. the new, good vs. evil, and it ends where it began: with questions about purpose, culture, and life. The Door to the Shadows is reminiscent of Tolkien because of the constant struggle between good and evil and the intricate characterizations that bring the story to life!
