Reading order
Read it in the author’s order, which is printed in the front of Child of Prophecy: book one, book two, then the prequel, then book three.
The Weeping Titan is set thousands of years before the saga and runs a little over nine thousand words. Read first, it is a short tragedy about a king and a Titan. Read third, it answers what the first two books leave you carrying, and changes what book three is about.
- 1. Book 1, 2018 Of Death & Sacrifice The night Vendel is banished from Palleria, Palleria stops existing.
- 2. Book 2, 2020 A Thousand Ashes The gods are not hiding anymore, and they are hunting a boy.
- 3. Prequel, 2022 The Weeping Titan A king wants a weeping Titan brought to his throne. Alive.
- 4. Book 3, 2023 Child of Prophecy The gods have a king. The war ends at his door.
What is Titanlord about?
Titans once ruled the world, until the Magmars rose against them and cast them into legend. Then a rebel called the Red Hand turned on the Magmars in turn, carrying a sword said to rival a Titan’s power, while the Crown tries every trick it has to stop history repeating.
The saga opens in the farming village of Palleria, on the night a girl named Vendel is banished, hours before her home stops existing. From there it becomes a war between a rebel warlord, a dying dynasty and gods built to erase humanity, governed by one short rule: he who strikes the final blow gains the power.
At its centre is Griffyn Haikrou, plucked from his own reality and handed the Masamune, the only sword that can fight back. Every time he draws on the Titans inside him, he risks losing himself.
It began, as M.G. Darwish tells it, with a player-versus-player dungeon raid in the game Aion that went wrong, and the question of what breaks, who pays, and what holds the wreckage together.
