Wyckelm Volume 1 The ageless child #926541

A newborn, swaddled in a bloodstained cloth, is pulled from the rushing waters of a river during a battle. Taken to safety in a tower to the south of the land of men, it took the child several decades to grow into the form of a shy young man, bearing on his skull the marks of deep wounds. 
Under the protection of his savior, he spends his days with a small creature hidden beneath his garments, in a utopian environment where magic intertwines with a peaceful and harmonious existence. 
Wyckelm will be unwittingly swept into an epic adventure that will lead him to uncover the truth about his origins and the mysterious, growing evil that gnaws at the northern lands. 

This first volume lays the groundwork for an epic tale that blends action and political intrigue, narrating two parallel stories: the hero’s present and the continent’s past.

Born in 1973, James W. Richardson is married and has one child. He is also the eldest of an Anglo-American family and spent his childhood between the two continents. After retiring from the British special services, where he served for over twenty years, he decided to devote his time to crafting several novels of fantasy and espionage.
