  From USA Today and #1 bestseller Morgan Rice comes A CLASH OF FATES (Book #21), the twenty-first book in the bestselling series THE SORCERER'S RING. The series begins with A QUEST OF HEROES (book #1), which has over 5,000 five star ratings!
  
  In A CLASH OF FATES, the heroes of the Ring race against time as ancient prophecies unfold with terrifying speed. Gwendolyn transforms from exiled queen to battlefield commander, rallying forgotten communities into a formidable fighting force and undertaking a dangerous ritual that grants her unprecedented power—just as enemy forces descend upon her position.
  
  Thor launches a seemingly impossible assault against a Titan's advance forces, his victory turning bitter as an even greater threat looms on the horizon. Guwayne, operating under a false identity among resistance fighters, can no longer hide his extraordinary abilities when a surprise attack forces him to reveal his true power, attracting allies and enemies alike with the display. 
  
  Within the fractured Ring, Sir Kellan's guerrilla resistance joins with unlikely allies when Lord Aldrich uncovers the kingdom's most terrible secret—that their homeland was built atop an ancient prison containing a threat more devastating than any they've faced before. As these parallel struggles intensify, the royal family must each find their role in a prophecy written before their birth, with the fate of not just the kingdom but the world itself hanging in the balance.
  
  With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, THE SORCERER’S RING is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and monsters, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal. It is a tale of honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery. It is a fantasy that brings us into a world we will never forget, and which will appeal to all ages and genders.
  
  Future books in the series are also available!
