Defurge, the mad God of Fire and Madness, is free. But he's on Bronwyn's side? Compelled by former incarnations, Defurge works alongside Bronwyn, Miro, and Clara to find the Hammer of Unmaking, a legendary artifact powerful enough to destroy the Soul Gem and end the curse of Defurge.
But first things first, Emestria still needs saving. Bronwyn searches for the Horn of Garanhir, another legendary artifact capable of creating food. With Miro and Clara still angry at Bronwyn for her actions while fighting Defurge, she finds the current incarnation a strange ally. Even with a clear target and set goals, something is still unsettling. Surely, it can't be the Library of Laevin and the peculiar denizens.
Of Hunters and Magi is the second installment in the Legendary Artifacts series. This epic fantasy picks up two weeks after the first book ended. Captain Bronwyn Amyna, Clara, Miro, and Issaroh are searching for an artifact to help Emestria weather the war with Rouke. But in the back of their minds, they know they will soon have to start searching for the artifact to destroy the Soul Gem that grants Defurge his power.
This is a multi-POV novel. Bronwyn, Clara, and Defurge are the primary points of view. The prologue includes a POV from a character far in the past: Cassandra, the first Void Walker. Mysteries unfold as the adventuring group discovers more about their abilities, the Ywaigwai, and the extent of Defurge's power. Each character harbors secrets, and no one is candid with the others.
Brandon Sanderson and Patrick Rothfuss fans will enjoy this mythic story, crafted in a unique world where gods and goddesses once lived alongside mortals. Christopher J. Harris combines his love for fantasy, video games, comedy, and old-school claymation movies, such as Jason and the Argonauts, in this series.
