Description
Time and allies both come in short supply.
Garidan Rourke has recaptured the throne of New Runswick, with master-archer Ladriana by his side. But all is not well: the army of a mad king from the distant past rages across the land, razing towns, villages, and cities with the help of his dragon allies. Their goal: to steal the life force of hundreds of magi to create a portal home.
Desperate for allies to stave off the ravagers, King Garidan attempts to locate the Ageians, the powerful race that imprisoned the dragons millennia before. Meanwhile, Queen Ladriana undertakes a diplomatic mission to the elves and dwarves to the north, seeking an alliance.
To gain the favour of the Ageians, Garidan fights his way through their dying world to solve a problem they could not. Will he gain their alliance - even as his queen faces threats on all sides?
King's Plight is an exciting continuation of the Dragon Wars Saga that will take you to new and exciting worlds. Follow Garidan on his journey through the peril he faces.

Person
Marius H. Visser spent the better part of a decade honing his writing skills and pushing the bounds of imagination after his debut fantasy novel Mercury Dagger - A Tale From Kraydenia. When Marius H. Visser is not off exploring the wilds of Australia, he is dreaming up new adventures and monsters to cause chaos in fantastical worlds filled with twists, loyalty, honour and great and terrible battles. Renowned for writing the Dragon Wars Saga, a trilogy known around the world, he sets a new bar for these winged beasts. Marius H. Visser grew up in a small town in South Africa called Koffiefontein, where he ran around with friends until the streetlights came on. Everyone knows that is the time you have to be back home, as he says. From there he moved around until eventually landing up in Johannesburg to work in the Information Technology sector, but he never lost his grip on his dreams to write more novels. Dreams inspired by David Gemmel's Winter Warriors, the very first fantasy novel he read.He became entranced in the worlds created by writers such as David Gemmel, Steven Erikson, Andrzej Sapkowski, Margaret Weis, Raymond E. Feist, and many more. In 2017 he and his wife moved to Australia, where he continues to create new works in the fantasy genre.
