Description
He was cast out by the Gods. Stripped of his power. Forbidden to interfere.
But Lucifer has never been good at following rules.
Exiled to Pluto - the Plane of Penalty - after the War of Fire, the Immortal Lucifer watches from the shadows as the Nine Planes teeter toward annihilation. A ruthless queen commands an army of silver-wielding witches. Kingdoms of men crumble. The smaller races hide and pray.
And the Gods? Silent. As always.
Queen Devina of the Argenti does not want peace. She wants dominion.
With magic forged from precious metals and an iron will to match, she is systematically destroying every free nation that stands in her path. Emperor Ulrik of Mars commands the last stronghold of men - but his armies are outnumbered and his wizards outmatched. His only hope is a grand wizard the world believes to be dead.
It may not be enough.
Lucifer knows this. Which is why, across forbidden years and stolen nights, he has been quietly planting something far more dangerous than an army.
His own blood. Scattered. Hidden. Hunted. If Devina finds his children before they find their power, the Nine Planes are lost.
Perfect for fans of Joe Abercrombie, Brandon Sanderson, and dark mythic fantasy with morally complex immortals, political intrigue, and epic world-building.

Person
Eben MacManus is the pen name of Leon Adler. Recently retired from a family run commercial door and construction company, I returned to writing. My education was at Towson University and UMBC in MD. I grew up in TN and went to VN in 1969 to serve two tours in the infantry. All of these experiences are fodder for my writing. I am married (since 1972) to Jean, who critiques and helps edit my writing. We live in PA at the base of the Blue Ridge Mts and close to Gettysburg.
While not writing I have been doing stained glass panels and creations.
