A confident teen is granted the sword, Excalibur, changing his perspective of the world. After learning of trolls and dragons, Amazons on different planets, he remains unfazed, ready to execute his new duties as the Midknight, the holder of Excalibur. However, he isn't ready to do what needs to be done, he isn't ready to end a threat the hard way like the Midknight is supposed to, and if that doesn't get him killed, it will mean the death of everyone around him.
Enemies are gathering, led by a mysterious leader with plans of conquest, and their leader may have just as much power as Excalibur, if not more. It's hard to say who's stronger when this villain only lurks in the shadows, but that's how he operates. Could he be hiding a dark dangerous secret that could lead to his downfall, or a secret that'll lead to the Midknight's downfall?
Either way, there's still only one question that matters. Who will live? Will the Midknight be standing alive in someone else's blood, or will he be dead along with his morals?
This story weaves legends and myths from diverse cultures-including the Cherokee, Greeks, and Aztecs-and blends them with science fiction by revealing that all pagan gods are actually aliens, like Zeus, who rules from the planet Punar.
The narrative incorporates words and names from languages such as Nahuatl, Greek, and Latin, respecting their original forms and pluralizations. For instance, Dux Bellorum-Latin for "Leader of Battles"-was a title for King Arthur the Warrior, the first Midknight and original wielder of Excalibur. Every Midknight carries a unique Latin name to inspire fear and mark their place in history.
This book is the first in a planned trilogy, followed by Fall of the Midknight: Dawn of the Knight Reaper. While this installment follows the Midknight's rise into the light, the second book explores his descent into darkness through a deeper character study told from multiple perspectives-revealing how those around him perceive him, as well as his slow spiral into madness. But have no fear, faithful readers. The sun rises. Then it falls. But then, it rises again.
