A novel by

David Farland

"A first rate tale, an epic fantasy that more than delivers on its promise."
Terry Brooks


"In The Runelords David Farland has created a vivid, detailed, different world that becomes perfectly believable. The characters are real, the action fast, and the sum a brilliant and engrossing novel."
David Drake


"David Farland is a consummate stylist, and his characters are so alive they walk right off the page. The Runelords is a wonderful fantasy novel."
Robert J Sawyer


"With The Runelords, David Farland breaks new ground in fantasy fiction and wakes up anyone who thought they'd read everything the genre had to offer. Definitely a new name to watch in the field."
Kevin J Anderson


"The Runelords heralds the arrival of a serious contender for the Jordan crown. This book is full of magic and myth, valor, treachery and bravery; all wrapped around a masterful epic adventure. This massive tale is woven together with the skill of a superior storyteller, making it a the start of a series that will thrill readers for years to come."
Michael A Stackpole


"When I reached the end of this first volume, The Runelords, and saw grace arise from a devastating battelfield where too many great hearts lay dead, Farland had earned the tears that came to my eyes. It was not sentiment, but epiphany."
Orson Scott Card


 

Young Prince Gabon Val Orden of Mystarria is traveling in disguise on a journey to ask for the hand of the lovely Princess Iome of Sylvarresta when he and his warrior bodyguard spot a pair of assassins who have set their sights on the princess's father. The pair races to warn the king of the impending danger and realizes that more than the royal family is at risk--the very fate of the Earth is in jeopardy.
