Synopsis

A wingless elf. A forbidden love. A war for survival across time and space.

When Peterkin, once the Lord Protector to the High King of the elves, falls in love with the king’s daughter, he’s brutally punished — stripped of his wings, tortured, and imprisoned in a dungeon beneath the castle. But deep within those dark chambers, he discovers an ancient Rift Gate, a mystical portal that links worlds.

Now, fueled by vengeance and a desperate hope to rescue his imprisoned love and their daughter, Peterkin crosses into a parallel Earth. There, he recruits a team of elite human mercenaries and forges a deadly alliance with dwarves, gnomes, and creatures of magic to face a rising dark power: the cannibalistic Dokka’lfar, servants of a terrifying Dark Lord.

The Tower of Absolom awaits — but between Peterkin and his family stand monstrous dragons, living hellscapes, and an empire built on cruelty, lies, and iron.

✨ Perfect for fans of Brandon Sanderson, Raymond E. Feist, Terry Brooks, and R.A. Salvatore,
this sweeping epic blends military sci-fi, classic high fantasy, and portal fantasy into a relentless tale of revenge, survival, and redemption.

Because sometimes the greatest power comes not from magic — but from refusing to surrender.

À propos de l'auteur

Barry Woodham spent his working life as a design engineer/draughtsman on the nuclear fusion project and has been an avid reader of science fiction for over fifty years. He found himself with nothing to read one lunchtime and began to write Genesis 2, the saga of the Gnathe. Many of his colleagues on the project began reading his efforts as quickly as he could finish the new chapters. He was persuaded to carry on and was halfway through the final section when the project drew to a close and he was able to take early retirement before redundancy, through a legacy. He promised his friends he would continue the story and let them know when he had finished. The joys of early retirement followed - fishing and walking the dogs,and the separation from his old reading colleagues meant the story remained unfinished. He lost the text through changing computers and it took some effort to retrieve the full story. He knew how Genesis 2 would end, but could never seem to be able to get round to finishing it. This has now changed and Barry has written the Genesis Project series, which started with Genesis 2, the saga of the Gnathe and now includes Genesis Debt, Genesis Weapon and the final book Genesis 3 is now complete and just published. In addition to the Genesis Project series Barry has turned his hand to the Fanatasy genre, The Elf War is the result
