Tales of Pannithor: Two Major Announcements
We’re happy to announce that we have two major novels coming in our Tales of Pannithor series, set in the world of Mantic’s fantasy world (Kings of War, Armada, Dungeon Saga, etc)!
Stand at Callenspire
The first is Stand at Callenspire by Joshua Reynolds! Readers might be familiar with his works with Black Library or Aconyte Books, among others that he’s published. We’re very happy to be working with Josh on several novels moving forward, but you can find more about him here!
The above cover is temporary until the official art gets finalized, but here is the synopsis:
“The invasion of Vieshlar has begun.
As the elves of the southern kindred retreat to the city of Callenspire, the halflings of Ej, led by Aeron Cadwallader, come to their aid. But will even his strategic genius be able to counter a foe whose might is enough to humble one of the greatest empires in the world? Or will Aeron and his allies succumb to enemies without – as well as within?
Elsewhere, though the amphibious tribes of the riverguard stir to readiness deep in the humid jungles, their allies, the Neriticans, remain strangely silent. Can the gillkin mage, Axel Tricklebrook, rouse the armies of Medu’Syth to war against an invader who threatens all the folk of Mantica – or are his efforts doomed to failure?
For if not, the fate of Vieshlar – and the rest of Mantica – is surely sealed…”
Look forward to the novel’s release November 2025, as well as more works from Josh in the future! You can preorder the novel here.
Last Light
The next novel that we’re happy to announce is Last Light by Mark Barber. This is the last story in what we have called the Sacred Ark series - which incorporates Steps to Deliverance, Hero Falling, and Faith Aligned. While this is not the last novel that Mark will be doing in the franchise, this is the final novel that focuses on Orion, Aestelle, Tancred, and all of the other characters that have been showcased.
Synopsis: “The sinister Coven has managed to move the corpse of the long dead necromancer Arteri from Basilea to a place of ancient, arcane power in Primovantor. As they prepare to resurrect the notorious lieutenant of Mhorgoth, news of their plans reaches both the demonic entities of the Abyss and the ears of Basilean spies. The legendary Grand Master of paladins, Gnaeus Sallustis, is tasked with leading an army across Primovantor to defeat Arteri before he can raise a horde of undead to threaten all of Pannithor. But the road ahead for Gnaeus and his soldiers is overrun with danger. Primovantor finds itself in a new age of rising power, with a contestation over the throne forcing the nation closer and closer to a civil war, and Basilea having already picked a side to back.
Tancred, Orion, Aestelle and the paladins of the 15th Cohort of the Order of the Sacred Ark once again ride to war under Gnaeus Sallustis’s command, facing the deadly threats of the armies of Primovantor on their way to do battle with the undead of the Coven… and whatever dark powers that have forced their way into the mortal world from the depths of the Abyss, courtesy of an old enemy..."
It will be a busy winter for Pannithor fans, as they can expect this novel to shortly follow Stand at Callenspire, with a December 2025 release! You can preorder the novel here.
Both these novels will be available to preorder at all major book retailers, and ebooks will follow shortly after the novels release.
We have plenty of exciting novels coming in our Infinity universe, as well as ten+ historical books in various stages of editing - so stay tuned for more news soon!
