Delphire book 1: The king of Shadows

Blaidd Delphire, a skilled captain leading a crew of misfits, receives a cryptic invitation from the elusive "King of Shadows," one of the most powerful mages of the era. Intrigued and drawn to the challenge (and the promise of a decent payday), Blaidd accepts the quest, little knowing the depths of chaos that await him. What starts as a simple task soon spirals into a high-stakes adventure filled with mishaps, misunderstandings, apple juice, swordfights on tree branches, sky-high battles, and a whole lot of dancing-all for a rock, of course.
