Description

WARRIORS FALL. HEROES RISE.

Jarrod Torrealday, Lord Protector of Falconsrealm, awakens one glorious fall morning to find his castle under siege and his alliances shattered as a new threat rises in the west: a revolution driven by a sorceress trained to kill and led by an unstoppable swordsman from the world he left behind. The weapons Jarrod brought with him are now rocking the country on its heels and threatening everything he came to save.

At a candlelit crossroads of dark sorcery and espionage, Jarrod must choose whether to embrace forbidden ancient magic for the good of the realm, or gamble the future of the kingdom in a showdown of profane magic against modern steel.

THE NEW MAGIC is a white-knuckle fantasy thriller from bestselling author Joseph Malik, and the sequel to the critically acclaimed fantasy technothriller DRAGON’S TRAIL.

Advance Praise

"The New Magic blows its predecessor away with a genre shift into sprawling epic fantasy, which Malik delivers with both fists. Wizards, gryphons, huge battles, duels to the death, kingdoms at stake. Most surprisingly, there’s an intense and slightly kinky love story showing remarkable emotional growth of main character Jarrod, who has become my favorite fantasy protag in recent memory, being equal parts Jon Snow and Deadpool."
- Goodreads ARC review, June 2018

"Joseph Malik is turning the most innovative fantasy novel of the past five years into an incredible series. Vivid fight scenes and grab-you-by-the-throat writing drive a broad palette of characters."
