The Plot of Book 1

The first book focuses around the experiences of a boy on the verge of manhood (surprise) and his experiences. His name is Anarasorian (or Anar) and he lives a simple life with his wealthy family on their farm in a region of the world of Eray called Dynorak. Anar is the youngest of his brothers. The world he lives in is called Eray and its people are in a level of technology somewhere around the end of the Middle Ages. It is a round world that orbits around a sun and it shares its orbit with a similar planet called Jindaria. The most important thing to note about the relationship between these two planets is that the inhabitants of Eray know nothing about the existance of life on Jindaria and most of the inhabitants of Jindaria know nothing about Eray life. The only people on Jindaria who know about life on Eray are the demons, who are the main villains in the series.
At the time that the story takes place, there is a war going on. A nearby kingdom called Rusherson has decided that it will disturb the peace and try and forge its own empire across the oh-so-innocent-peace-loving kingdoms of Eray. Anar and his brothers join the army in order to get out and live a little. His parents do not want him to go and fight in the war against Rusherson but he is determined to get out and have an adventure.
Eray is a very peaceful planet and it has had almost no wars ever. Because of this the Eray people have a very naieve view of the subject and undertake it with greater enthusiasm than most would be willing to go to. The reason why this is so is because I wanted the world to seem oblivious and in-the-dark about a lot of things. This makes them easier to manipulate. Unknown to Anar, the kingdom of Rusherson is being exploited by a demonic king from named Usor'An (more on him later).
Anar goes out to fight in the war that has started with Rusherson as a militiaman. I know very little about medieval training and since I didn't want to write three chapters about how Anar trained to be a soldier I merely gave him a small role in the army. The idea was that the war was so sudden and the kingdoms of Eray so unexperienced in combat that they had to scrape up armies of militia and conscripts out of eager young men and equip them like full-time soldiers. The unit of militia Anar is in gets sent to fight the Rushersonics who are devoted to their new war. From there, his entire unit is slaughtered by three demons who are allied with the Rusherson soldiers. The demons attack Anar's unit while they are behind enemy lines and he the only survivor. Alone, Anar has to survive and figure out what is going on with the Rushersonics and their demonic allies. He meets the mysterious Rook and the two of them form a friendship not because they find the other to be an enjoyable person to be around, but because they are forced to be together. The conflict and danger that ensues forms the rest of the story and since it may very well one day get published, I don't want to post information regarding how it ends nor do I want to post any spoilers.
Most fantasy stories are about the coming of age, light defeating darkness, and companionship. Not so with book 1, nor book 2, nor book 3. The world of Eray is not black and white with an absolute evil fighting an absolute good. The government that helps control the kingdom that Anar lives in who serve as a protagonistic force are the Eray equivilant of the Nazis. Rook, the second most important protagonist, is a complete anti-hero. I want the series to focus on critical thought, forgiveness, and basic morality. I also want the series to be original. This first book is the first chapter in the series which I work on.
On Microsoft Word it is 237 pages long on font 11 with the resolution at 1280 X 800 pixels and thinned margins and 1 1/2 spaced. It took me four months to write and has been the only manuscript that has thus far met the eyes of a senior editor. I started writing it in September of 2006 and I finished on December of that same year mere days before the Christmas holiday began.
