Ordination: Book One of the Paladin Trilogy

For generations, warlords fought bitterly for dominance in a land without a king, leaving a fractured, war-torn country plagued by thieves, slavers, and the servants of dark gods and darker magic. Allystaire Coldbourne travels a treacherous path toward his Ordination as a holy knight of legend, a Paladin, a savior of the people. But to fulfill this role, he--and the unexpected allies he finds along the way--must face the demonic, sorcerous evil that stalks the land, the wrath of gods and men, and his own dark past.
