ONE BOY'S POWER TO SUMMON DEMONS WILL CHANGE THE FATE OF AN EMPIRE ...
Demons, magic and epic adventure - introducing the first book in the New York Times bestselling Summoner Trilogy...
Fletcher was nothing more than a humble blacksmith's apprentice, when a chance encounter leads to the discovery that he has the ability to summon demons from another world. Chased from his village for a crime he did not commit, he must travel with his demon to the Vocans Academy, where the gifted are trained in the art of summoning.
The academy will put Fletcher through a gauntlet of gruelling lessons, training him as a battlemage to fight in the Hominum Empire's war against the savage orcs. Rubbing shoulders with the children of the most powerful nobles in the land, Fletcher must tread carefully. The power hungry Forsyth twins lurk in the shadows, plotting to further their family's interests. Then there is Sylva, an elf who will do anything she can to forge an alliance between her people and Hominum, even if it means betraying her friends. Othello is the first ever dwarf at the academy, and his people have long been oppressed by Hominum's rulers, which provokes tension amongst those he studies alongside.
Fletcher will find himself caught in the middle of powerful forces, with nothing but his demon Ignatius to help him. As the pieces on the board manoeuvre for supremacy, Fletcher must decide where his loyalties lie. The fate of an empire is in his hands ...
BONUS MATERIAL: Find out more about Demons in an illustrated DEMONOLOGY - exclusive to this paperback edition.

I'm so in to the story from the first page that I forget the world around
me. The way the story is written makes it easy to picture how it looks
like, Ive got a movie running in my head. No detailes is spared and the way
its all depicted, with such accuracy, that its easy to see what the writer
wants to portait. Its beautifull. The story is recognisable, but not
booring. Ive seen loads of these kind of stories in movies and games but
Ive never taking the time to read a book in the same genre. So needless to
say this is my first, and I love it. There are no needless talking,
romancing or too heavy backround detailed descriptions. Its just forward,
no minching words or heavy wording. The characters are easy to get and few
suprises, witch so far is good but will hopefully increse so as it will not
get booring. Now on to the next one!
