Waking the Warriors

WHEN THE LAND IS IN MORTAL DANGER, THE WAKING WARRIORS WILL RISE.

Tanas has risen, seemingly from nowhere, to become the modern dictator of a great western nation. Now he is sweeping across the world, subjugating all in his wake. His armies are powerful and fearful, his crocodile-headed commanders conquering with force and with magic.

Tanas's reign seems unstoppable, his dictatorship a foregone conclusion. Until he meets a small band of people. They have no weapons, no money, no power, yet together, they form the beginnings of a resistance. But what will happen when the greatest army in the world meets the smallest?
