Synopsis

Massive armies are poised to invade the three main countries of the mainland. The Khadorans, Sakovans, and Fakarans are badly outnumbered as a thousand huge warships set sail from the Island of Darkness to exterminate all life on the mainland. Led by an ageless mage, the forces of evil appeared assured of success. The Torak, the Star of Sakova, and the Astor rally their forces to meet the onslaught and preserve humanity, but can their outnumbered forces stave off the murderous rampage that is about to descend upon them? Army of the Dead is the exciting conclusion to the epic fantasy series, Forgotten Legacy by Richard S. Tuttle.

Reviews

Patricia Spork...

I enjoyed this final tale of Forgotten Legacy--wonderful ending for the series!

Marak [The Torak]; Lyra [The Star of Sarkova] and Rejji [The Astor] fulfill their destiny as ordained by their God [Kaldora] in this final saga of the Forgotten Legacy. The three brave leaders prepare defensive measures to thwart the devious mage Vand, who is empowered by his demonic God, Dobuk.

Although grossly outnumbered by Vand’s servitudal mages, ape-like creatures and Matangan army, mainland spies infiltrate the enemy forces and gain advance knowledge of the planned naval attacks. This Time of Cleansing proves fatal for both sides, as fields are burned, starvation endured and mass casualties result.

Even with mages, elves, cat people, giant spiders and a flying dragon to aid in defense, outwitting and overpowering Vand proves more difficult than imagined, especially since he’s guarded by six demons and raises the dead to fight for his dark cause. How then can the prophesized leaders defeat such a powerful enemy?

Richard S. Tuttle aptly describes defensive and offensive war strategies in this fantasy tale of good against evil. His characters - most introduced in earlier books from this series - hold true to their noble or deviant convictions to the end. Army of the Dead, although ending the Forgotten Legacy series, is like a new beginning for the author, for Mr. Tuttle can now acquaint his fans with other fantastical tales and timeless characters.

About the Author

Making the transition from President of a computer consulting firm servicing Fortune 500 companies to the reclusive life of creating new worlds is not as difficult a task as one would imagine. Both require organization, patience, and a vision of what is possible.

Richard S. Tuttle accomplishes this transition in a dramatic way with the release of eighteen novels dealing with two entirely created worlds. The Khadora Series evolves around a continent comprised of three countries with widely diverse cultures.

The Targa Trilogy and the Sword of Heavens Series deals not only with a diverse world but widely varied universes as well. His ability to create a believable world and unique characters is bound to draw a following of readers that will make Richard S. Tuttle a household name.
