The Third Kingdom

Phillip spent his youth working the family farm, yearning for adventure and dreaming of traveling the vast kingdom. When the king invites Phillip to join in an epic quest, his dreams may be coming true, but only if he can survive. Seven all but impossible demands lay between Phillip and the throne. Demons, goblins, and a century old mystery are just some of the obstacles Phillip must overcome. His journey to the Forest of Memories will take Phillip through the Devil’s Swamp, a battle with raiders from the East, and encounters with new peoples and creatures he scarcely knew existed. Phillip will be joined by his new companion Jared, an experienced traveler but who is haunted by his own inner demons. They will encounter magical creatures, fight alongside knights, and endure hardships which will test more than just their endurance. To ascend through the forest of memories Phillip must outwit a clever hob-goblin, survive a forest intent on killing him and solve a tree nymph's riddle. ...

The Quest Continues.... Join Phillip as he continues the quest to fulfill the demands and earn the right to be the next king. The second demand will be far more challenging than the first. Before moving on to the next demand Phillip and Jared must first deal with the remaining Bracken who relentless pursue them after leaving The Devil's Swamp. New friends aide Phillip's quest, but will his friendship put them in mortal danger? Will he be able to find a way to defeat his heartless enemies before they claim more innocent lives?  The journey will take them to the southern area of the kingdom and the Canyon district. The canyon is so deep the lower levels are in constant darkness. Legend tells that somewhere in the depths of the Canyon lays the ancient Crown of Cenus. Stories tell of a great Cave Troll who found the crown and escaped his pursuers by entering the fog. Trolls, scavengers, large cave cats and other creatures of the night patrol the depths of the Canyon, but all avoid...

Time is short, the dangers real and the enemy closer than ever before. Phillip must summon up his strength and courage if he is to have any hopes of completing his two new demands. He expected difficulty, danger and hardships, but he had never expected to fall in love. ... The Conqueror series continues as Phillip struggles to complete two additional demands in his quest to be king. Time is against Phillip as he sails north in search of a Stone Pearl which can only be found in rare hot water springs. There he will be forced to battle the elements and his own endurance as never before. He will also meet the love of his life as they encounter witch huts, mystical mermaids and a deadly winter storm. If he can't beat the odds and collect the Stone Pearl now, he will be forced to wait until spring and repeat the perilous journey. Phillip will push himself to the limits to achieve his goal, but the ultimate cost could be more than he is willing to pay. The group then must turn south to t...

The epic Conqueror quest comes to an exciting conclusion in Book Four - "The Final Demand". Phillip and Jared must do battle with barbarians from the south in a battle where they are vastly outnumbered. They must then do battle with evil itself. The group must visit the Tyboa village where Phillip will be tested like never before. He must then enter the belly of the beast to recover an artifact many believe does not exist. Within the mountain waits more danger, more evil, and more death than Phillip has ever encountered. The last demand will require more ingenuity, hard work, pain and sacrifice than ever before. Phillip will be reunited with old friends and companions as he returns to where it all began. Will Phillip be rejoined by his new found love? Will friends become adversaries, will he be willing to do what must be done? With the completion of seven demands the race is on to be the first to reach the Castle Crete, but more obstacles may yet remain. Much is yet to be de...
