Books like Savage Messiah by Robert Newcomb
Robert Newcomb’s epic fantasy continues in Savage Messiah, the first book of a new trilogy set in Eutracia. After Wulfgar’s defeat, Tristan believes peace restored, but the Orb of the Vigors, now fractured, drains magical energy, threatening the kingdom. Tristan must heal the Orb by returning his enchanted blood to normal—an unheard‑of reversal whose secret is lost. Complicating matters, Wulfgar is alive, regrouping in a fortress across the Sea of Whispers with the Heretics, masters of the Vagaries. Together, they strengthen their dark arts, summon demonic servants, and launch attacks to annihilate the Orb and the Chosen Ones. Tristan, joined by wizards Wigg and Faegan, pirate Tyranny, and lover Celeste, embarks on a perilous quest that takes them from the Sea of Whispers to Parthalon and the Well of Forestallments, uncovering hidden truths about themselves and their destiny. The fate of the Orb and the Vigors hangs in the balance as Tristan confronts ancient magic, betrayal, and the cost of duty.
