The Adept

The Adept: Book 1

Katherine Kurtz
Deborah Turner Harris

Warrior... Doctor... Knight... Detective... Defender of the Light

He is Sir Adam Sinclair: nobleman, physician, scholar - and an Adept. A man of great learning and power, he practices arcane ancient arts unknown to the modern world.

He has had many names and has lived many lives, but his mission remains the same: to protect the Light of the world from those metaphysical criminals who prowl the Dark Road.

Now his beloved Scotland is defiled by a ruthless cult of black magicians who will commit any atrocity, from murder both physicical and spiritual to enslaving the dead, to achieve their evil ends.

Only one man can stand against them...

Katherine Kurtz
Deborah Turner Harris

Knight... Warrior... Doctor... Detective... Master of the Hunt!

He is eternal, but so are his foes. Through countless lives and eras, The Adept has fought the powers of Darkness. Now, as psychiatrist Adam Sinclair, he leads his loyal Hunstmen against supernatural evil in all all its myriad forms.

But the Darkness is striking back--in the guise of an unholy cult long thought to be extinct. Endowed with the elemental energy of an ancient Druidic artifact and forbidden Nazi black magic, the Lodge of the Lynx stands ready to unleash destruction on Sinclair, his allies, and, ultimately, all of Scotland.

The game is afoot for the Adept and his Hunt... but this time, their enemies are also hunting them!

The Adept... Knight... Warrior... Doctor... Detective... Master of the Hunt!

He is eternal, but so are his foes.

Through countless lives and eras, The Adept has fought the powers of Darkness. Now, as psychiatrist Sir Adam Sinclair, he leads his loyal Hunstmen against supernatural evil in all all its myriad forms.

Now an urgent summons sets the Adept on a life-or death search for the Seal of Solomon, an ancient bronze artifact that can bind - or unleash - the demons of old. Guarded for centuries by the legendary Knights Templar, the Seal has been stolen by a ruthless sorcerer who intends to use it to find the fabled treasure of the Templar Order.

If humanity is to survive, Sinclair must complete the quest to obtain the three Hallows and to prevent his enemy from unleashing an ancient terror into the modern world.

Deep within a sea cave, sacred texts of the black arts have been recovered from the corroded hulk of a World War II German submarine. Within these pages lies the power to spawn a new, demonic Third Reich - and make Aryan world conquest a terrifying reality. Now they rest in the hands of the Phurba, a vile dagger cult older than Christianity itself.

Only Adam Sinclair can prevent the deadly blades of the Phurba from piercing the heart of humanity. Only he can quell the darkness that lives in... Dagger Magic.

The Inadequate Adept

The Reluctant Sorcerer: Book 2

Simon Hawke

The Voice in the Ether...

Trying to discover time travel, scientific genius Dr. Marvin Brewster accidentally transports himself to a parallel universe that suspiciously resembles the setting of a fantasy novel... a strange, medieval world where magic really works, unicorns hate virgins and smell terrible, elves drink human blood and play guitars, dwarves wear dreadlocks and flannel plaids, talking dragons dream our universe, and sorcerers are powerful enough to detect the presence of the narrator and attempt to take over the plot.

Trapped without his time machine, which has mysteriously disappeared, Brewster enlists the aid of the residents of Brigand's Roost to help him find it, in exchange for bringing some progress to their village in the form of solar power, showers, prescription lenses, a wondrous, alchemical concoction he calls "soap," and a strange, lightweight metal called "aluminum."

However, any science that is sufficiently advanced would seem like magic to those who didn't understand it, and the Sorcerers and Adepts Guild takes a dim view of anyone who practices magic without paying their dues....
