Tired of running, Garrick decides to face his destiny in direct contests with the orders’ god-touched mages. Darien, the son of Dorfort’s commander, and Sunathri, the leader of a faction of independent mages, understand that the freedom of the entire plane is at stake, so they lend him their blades in support.To succeed, they will have to use Garrick as bait, convince the leaders of Dorfort to join them, and face the horrors of war against the overwhelming strength of the orders’ armies as they convene their forces at the shadows of the legendary God’s Tower.Gathering of the God-Touched follows Garrick as he faces the repercussions of his magic, and grows to understand what it means to have a place in the world.

After a hollow victory at God’s Tower, Garrick seeks vengeance from mages who have wronged him. But a call from Darien brings him back to Dorfort, and the machinations of his god-like superior take him to Rastella, a cold and distant plane that is ruled by a man who has stolen control of the plane’s magic. All the while, the remaining mages of the Koradictine order, thought to be devastated after the battle at God’s Tower, hatch a breathtaking plan to reclaim their glory.Pawn of the Planewalker follows Garrick as he discovers the vastness of Existence.

Garrick has agreed to lead the independent Torean mages, if for no other reason than to protect them from deceit and trickery of the god-like planewalkers. But when he returns to Dorfort, he finds the high superior of the Koradictine order has kidnapped Will, the boy Garrick had taken under wing. Devastated, he vows to retrieve the boy, a choice that results in being disowned by the twisted planewalker who is his mage superior. Meanwhile, the Lectodinian order launches a winter offensive designed to gain control of magic across Adruin, and the remnants of the Koradictine leadership joust for position as they enact a desperate ploy to survive.In Changing of the Guard, Garrick is on his own as he hunts the Koradictine high superior through a trail that leads through demonic underplanes and mystical time warps.

And perhaps more important, what will remain of the orders if he survives?The results will change the face of Adruin forever.

Garrick wants to bring purpose to his Freeborn mages so he can use them to protect the plane from the whims of the god-like planewalkers. After the city of Dorfort evicts the Freeborn, however, his first task is to find them a new home. The Freeborn are a flighty collection, though, filled with fiercely independent and opinionated members as well as those who are not above treachery to get their way.
