⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

From USA Today and #1 bestseller Morgan Rice comes A RISE OF LEGENDS (Book #19), the nineteenth 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 RISE OF LEGENDS, the scattered heroes of the Ring face extraordinary challenges as ancient powers reawaken. Thor's journey north reveals a shocking truth—the people he thought were an enemy are actually guardians of an ancient prison containing horrors from a forgotten age.

Meanwhile, Guwayne's rescue mission is derailed when a mysterious fog separates him from his crew, leaving him stranded on an uncharted island where he meets a powerful Druid. Under her guidance, Guwayne begins to unlock abilities that surpass even his father's, though his newfound powers bring disturbing visions of devastation. While in the Ring, Gwendolyn endures captivity at the hands of treacherous nobles while uncovering their plot to use barbarian invaders as pawns in their bid for power.

As these threats converge from all directions, the royal family faces its greatest test—separated by vast distances but united in their struggle against forces that threaten not just the kingdom, but the world itself. With ancient evils stirring and betrayal lurking at every turn, the fate of the Ring hangs by the thinnest of threads.

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!
