How do you fight the darkness that grows within? Beware the cost of death. After surviving the call to Duskmorrow Swamp, Denton Wade finds himself burdened with the weight of a dark mark and a broken blade. Sent to the Frostwind Mountains by his Battle Mage mentor, there is but one hope: an Elixir of Souls that can only be crafted after successfully harvesting 20 rare thistles hidden amongst the frigid mountain slopes. In an afterlife world of quests and magic, Denton must make a difficult choice. Faced with two competing quest lines and a broken blade with a growing lust for battle, he discovers the right answer isn't always the obvious one. Will he answer the call to purge the darkness now plaguing the Frostwind Mountains, or will he fulfill his promise to a dying man? The Broken Blade is the second book in the series: A Battle Mage Reborn, and is a GameLit Fantasy Adventure with soft LitRPG elements set in the digital world of EndWorld Everlasting.
