The unity of the World of Antheric is unbalanced......
Rumours say the spirit of Lord Gaul endured the power of Mighty Layos and the Twelve Raelmarons of the Alore in the Great War long ago. Slowly, the World of Antheric was corrupted by Gaul's whispers, bidding continents against continents; kingdoms against kingdoms.
For thousands of years, the Daímons of the Domainvile continent have sought to conquer the Continent of Zuetar, waging war with its capital country; Mavore. But the power of the Pneuma Warriors proved too great for Domainvile's armies too often, and yet, more enemies within Zuetar seek to dethrone King Basen Nador.
Jenin O'Brien is a teenager from Earth. Struggling with his demons Jenin pines to have a decent life, but soon learns he was selected by Mighty Layos as the Chosen Saviour of Light to restore balance back to the World of Antheric. Joined by four Pneuma Warriors, Jenin must embark on a dangerous quest to stop three curses that will destroy the Continent of Zuetar, created by the Valltar Brothers - the Daímon Kings of Domainvile.
A force looms over Jenin, awaiting him to choose a path; the Light or Darkness.
Enter the first adventure of the World of Antheric Saga.
J. Anthony, Marcus: - "Marcus J. Anthony is an upcoming author from Dublin, Ireland who published the previous version of the book Love of Sacrifice before he rebooted it into the World of Antheric. Some who have known Marcus from school found the news of his book a surprise, as Marcus struggled through school dealing with dyslexia and social anxiety. Marcus had a lack of focus in his studies and would spend most of his time daydreaming about flying on dragons or waving a wand to cast a spell. Fantasy fuelled Marcus' mind, however, it cost him to fall behind in school. He would be exempt from Irish language studies, which was disheartening for him to not be able to translate his countries original language. When Marcus was ten, he suffered from sleep anxiety. So, he decided to use his strong imagination to create 'movies' in his head that would help him sleep. That was when some of the characters in this novel were created. In the years that followed the movies in his head developed and became a magical world that Marcus could not resist writing. Creative writing became his passion, and Marcus was not going to allow his dyslexia to stop him from achieving. He spent most of his teenage years (staying home on weekends) writing and learning until he found the writing style that fit him. Marcus has a great love for animals and supports charities. He is vocal about the awareness of animal abuse, which he expressed in the story through Jenin's past experiences. Marcus currently has four cats: Summer, Junior, Littler, and Leia. In 2017 Marcus fell into a dark spell of generalised anxiety and depression, which delayed his book's release. The Black Grawth came from his experience with anxiety and panic attacks. And Gaul - the Dark Lord was a figure that represented the darkness of depression. With the help of treatment, family, and meditation Marcus found strength and happiness again and continues to write with the world around him as his inspiration. He enjoys spending time with his boyfriend, watching Professional Wrestling, and writing the next books in the series of the World of Antheric. Marcus J.
