Sire Demon — Franz S. McLaren

"Clarion of Destiny" is the eight volume fantasy tale of Leena, a heroine selected by destiny to combat the greatest challenge her world has ever known. In an epic journey that leads through foreign lands and mysterious realms where demons, monsters, and magic rule, this inexperienced young girl is forced to overcome a protected childhood to face challenges that would crush far more experienced adventurers. With each step she takes, with each passing day, she draws closer to a malevolent force so formidable that it has defeated the mightiest armies and the strongest magic of her world, an evil that could prove too powerful for her developing knowledge and skills to overcome. In Volume 6, “Sire Demon” Leena must enter a city controlled by the Sire Demon that seeks to take her soul. Somewhere in the city's cruel dungeon maze, her family is being held captive. Unarmed, hunted, lost, and alone, her quest to find and free them leads her into the private lair of the Sire Demon itself. Is she the first to find its evil den? Or has no one ever returned to tell the tale?
