A King Beneath the Mountain — Robert N. Charrette

A SHADOW WAR
The drone of corporate life continues. But behind the closed doors, a frenzy of activity has begun. Furtive whispers and tight-lipped excitement surround the recent discovery that will change the world forever.

The ancient chaos of magic has awakened.

A secret war to control this awesome power is being waged. Each faction sees itself as the way to the future. Some want the magic, some hate magic, some are the magic--and not all of the contenders are human.

A DEADLY AWAKENING
John Reddy is struggling to survive in the urban megasprawl until a mysterious messenger brings him an invitation from King Arthur. The Awakened King needs him. For the return of magic heralds the resurgence of something else: something very old, evil, and hungry. Something John must stop before it destroys everyone he knows.

And their deaths would be just the beginning...
