About the Book
In the land of Sarfank, four powerful races rule the four compass directions of the land. Until recently they have enjoyed a prolonged peace and have had few worries. However, in the canyons of Sulzar a forgotten race called the eiks looks to upset this balance by launching a terrible war to ultimately destroy the other races and claim Sarfank for themselves. Amidst this impending conflict, a farm boy who bears the same name as his country is celebrating his fifteenth birthday. He lives out most of his life unaware of the storm gathering around him until that very night when his village is sacked by the eiks and he barely manages to escape. He joins up with a young zacos named Joen and the two of them embark on a quest to warn the rulers of the land, Alliance of Sarfank, of the eiks. Along their way they meet up with a wise zacos queen who tells them of the bloody history behind the eiks and the ancient race of elves who have long since left Sarfank. She also tells them of the Xlipher, a lost weapon once used to defeat the eiks long ago. When Sarfank and Joen finally make their way to the Alliance after many close calls and battles, they find their real adventure has just begun. They must enlist the aid of other warriors to search out the elves and find a way to defeat the eiks. However, the group does not go unnoticed by the eiks and now they must travel across the country while being hunted and pursued by hundreds of bloodthirsty beasts.
About the Author
Author Cover bio: J. E. McCombs currently resides in the city of Joliet, Illinois. He has had a passion for writing ever since he was a young boy. “I owe much of my creative talents and taste for fantasy to watching Star Wars as a kid and being absolutely mesmerized by it. Now going in to my senior year of high school I feel I should share that very same passion with the world. The Alliance of Sarfank is my first book which I have invested years of sweat, frustration, and joy over. I pray the world will love it as much as I do.”
