Aethir

Aethir - DeWayne Kunkel Book 2 in the Chronicles of the Dark Sword trilogy.
(Gandalf) Marcos leads (Frodo) Casius and the group as they continue on their way to (Mount Doom) Tarok Nor to recover the (One ring) magic sword Aethir which is the only thing that can defeat (Sauron) Sarkur.

The writing has improved slightly from the first book, could still have used a good proof read. Still suffers from commas and full stops in odd places, breaking up the flow of reading.

There's more battles as the various kings start making a stand against the invading forces, and ends on a cliffhanger ending.
