He was just a blacksmith's apprentice. Until the day everything burned.
When Warlord Draven's raiders destroy his village and murder his mother, twelve-year-old Jake escapes into the wilderness with nothing but his little sister and a burning vow for revenge. But revenge requires strength-and strength requires training.
Taken in by a broken old knight hiding from his past, Jake learns that the sword is more than just a weapon. It is a burden. A responsibility. A promise.
As Jake grows from a sarcastic, sharp-tongued orphan into a legendary warrior, he faces enemies beyond imagination-a dragon summoned from the depths of hell, a shadow organization manipulating kingdoms from the darkness, and an ancient goddess of chaos threatening to consume the world itself.
But his greatest battle is the one within.
Armed with the legendary blade Aurelium, blessed-or cursed-with the power of lightning itself, and surrounded by a family he never expected to find, Jake must decide what kind of man he wants to become.
A hero?
A protector?
Or just a survivor?

About the Author
Jack Smith Tempest is a fantasy and mystery author, a lifelong reader, and an unapologetic book alcoholic. He doesn't drink to forget - he reads to remember why stories matter. That obsession, cultivated over years of devouring everything from epic sagas to pulp detective novels, is the engine behind everything he writes.
Jack's fiction lives at the crossroads of genres. His worlds are epic in scope but intimate in detail - where historical fantasy meets paranormal mystery, where a murder investigation can uncover a curse, and where heroes are as flawed as the histories they're trying to survive. He writes fantasy, fiction, epic and heroic fantasy, historical fantasy, historical mystery, mystery, investigative and paranormal fiction, thrillers, and suspense - and he refuses to pick just one.
His storytelling philosophy is simple: the reader comes first. Every chapter is built to pull you forward, every twist earned, every world constructed so thoroughly you can smell the rain on the cobblestones and feel the magic humming under the floorboards. Jack writes to entertain - to give readers the same escape that books gave him when he needed it most.
He is currently at work on multiple novels and series, each one darker, stranger, and more ambitious than the last. He writes for the readers who stay up too late, who say "one more chapter" and mean five, who finish a book and immediately look for the next one.
If that sounds like you, then you're exactly who he's writing for.
Welcome to the addiction.
