The Greatest of Books - Rosa Marchisella

To clear his name, disgraced knight, Baxton Al'Mur is magically bound to the impossible task of retrieving Deh Wersend Al Baku, known as The Greatest of Books, from a legendary troll or die horribly. No one has ever faced the troll and lived. Soldiers have fallen. Wizards have failed.

Death would be a blessing for Baxton, but the Curse of Life has bound his best friend's fate to his own. For Lenigh's sake, Baxton must succeed. But, success has a terrible price. Wherever Baxton and the book go, so follows the unstoppable troll.

As the body count rises, Baxton has to make a terrible decision: Sacrifice hundreds of innocent people to complete his mission or betray the last person he loves to keep his world safe from the troll.

** Praise for The Greatest of Books **

"The Greatest of Books bursts into action from the very first chapter. It has a fast paced, propulsive, kinetic, and dark story line. There is never a boring chapter. Marchisella has created a ferocious book whose pages are a whirlwind of action and sacrifice ... It is a heart-stopping, heartrending, thrilling tale, well worth the read." - Jessica Barbosa, Readers' Favorite

"Ominous, vicious, and worth it! Marchisella breathed life back into the legendary troll and gave me chills."

- Joshua Robertson, Thrice Nine Legends
