About this ebook

Returning from a less than magical year at the White Rock Academy of Illumination, which resulted in a friend’s death, the loss of a powerful Shadow weapon, the Black Bonded, and the continued perceived betrayal of those he trusts, Danny Firoth finds himself torn between the competing ideals of the Light and his own. Given the magnitude of the ongoing clash between the forces of Light and the forces of Dark, Danny finds the scale of high school trifles rather trivial in comparison. Reinforcing this viewpoint, his fears become all too real as the ancient battle between the Light and the Dark spills directly into the halls of the school. Danny is confronted with a new threat, wielding the very weapons he tried so desperately to keep from falling into the Shadows’ hands, Black Bondeds.


In the face of this new threat, Danny and his friends must work alongside a new kind of ally, those of the Grey, the Greyknights. Unsure of these new would-be allies, Danny struggles in his continued effort to unravel the chronicle of the Mageknight and his place as the aspirant savior in the battle to come as the Shadow threat seems to grow to a culminating level. Faced with the overreaching shade of the Shadows, Danny must face a question that has been pending for quite some time, to embrace the lies of the Light and the falsehood of his prophesized role or betray their principles for the good of what is to come.


Light and Dark: Greyknight is the third book in the Light and Dark Series, a continuing sequence of epic fantasy, adventure novels that combine new elements of science fiction, scientific theories and technology, and a mythological connection to legend, lore, and religion to an already thrilling world of formidable villains and gallant heroes, magic, super-powered action, and spell-casting escapades, exploring a fresh militaristic setting while adding the continued tradition of appealing characters, fictional and non-fictional locals, and an enchanted cast of races.

About the author

It is hard to believe that this is the third completed work in the Light & Dark Series, with the first, The Awakening of the Mageknight, published nearly ten years previously. Ironically, I began writing Light & Dark nearly ten years prior to even that during my second year of college. However, Light & Dark was not my first venture into writing and my focus, for some time, was much different, being that of a high fantasy endeavor that, in the future, may see the light of publication. However, however, this is meant to insinuate that writing has been a passion for me for some time, and Light & Dark has become the culmination of that drive. In my opinion, writing must be just that. One must be passionate about it, dedicated to its process, and willing to sacrifice. It is not a calling for the occasionally interested. I have dedicated and I continue to dedicate a daily devotion to writing. To be a writer, one must write every day, knowing that said writing is meant to entertain the reader and the writer.  Yet, as I said, writing must be a drive because a writer must be prepared that his or her work has a chance of never catching the mainstream eye and thus may end up lost within the nearly infinite spectrum of other works. It is funny to acknowledge that a work such as this can take years to produce but only hours to consume. As I am writing this, Light & Dark has, unfortunately, remained in the dark. It is my hope that the work will someday find its way into the light. However, I am complacent to continue to write regardless of either outcome. Life can often feel like an exercise in futility, but nothing worth doing is ever easy, and hard work eventually pays off one way or another. I believe true perceived hardship is often the result of finding oneself bogged down by the events of life and choices of others that one cannot control. The trick is focusing on what one can control and, in that, striving to progress a little every day in whatever vocation one chooses to pursue, be it writing or something else, which will someday amount to something you had no idea you were capable of. When I look back at the completed works of the Light & Dark Series, I find myself humbled. It has been a struggle, and it will continue to be one, but Light & Dark is worth the labor, in my biased opinion. Thus, whether you are a longtime fan or a recent one, please know that I will continue to write, and I expect you to continue to read. That is, of course, when you have the time and as you, the reader, continue to strive and pursue your own passion or passions.
