 Isgalduin by R. C. Setarcos - January 2013
Many ages ago Elves and Dwarves worked as allies. Together they fashioned many of the great treasures of the world. When the races became estranged, the great learning and craft that each possessed were turned to making things of destruction and domination. The Great War of the Old Kindreds followed. When the war ended, the wise of both Elves and Dwarves decided to do away with these evil devices. All those devices that could be used against Elf, Dwarf, or Man were removed from this plane by the power of the Amulet of Quilan. The Amulet itself was the sole remaining artifact of the elder ages. Now one of the ancient Powers from ages past has returned and possesses the Amulet, and with it he intends to enthrall the world of Isgalduin. Led by a six thousand year old elf priestess, a seven foot wizard and an Amazon warrior, the free cities of Isgalduin unite to face this ancient menace. Joined by a King, a thief, a horse Chieftain and a swordsman, they decide to take on the evil Power in his own lair. Faced with the destruction of their world if they fail, the quest to save Isgalduin leaves no option but to succeed or die trying.
The book is available on Amazon.com and on Kindle.
 Tales of Isgalduin edited by R.C. Setarcos. The sword and sorcery book, Isgalduin, was published in 2013 and created the back drop for all the stories in this anthology. Soon after its publication it was obvious from the many tales hinted at, or sometimes mentioned in passing in Isgalduin, that more stories needed to be written concerning the characters and places, the history which we only see for the very brief period of the book.
The tales contained herein stretch over many thousands of Isgalduin years. Some occur many years before the story told in Isgalduin, and some occur thousands of years after. Over so many years even the geographical names change from story to story. This anthology brings together a selection of the best stories submitted for Tales of Isgalduin. Included are stories by up and coming writers David Nash and C.I.V.M. Collins. If Isgalduin continues to generate more spin off stories then we will continue the publish them. Slowly the collective creativity of the writers will flesh out this world and make it richer for all who like to read.

Reviews of Hayden’s War…
5 out of 5 stars in every review on Amazon.com (10/18/2015)
“This was a fun adventure. I enjoyed the gaming aspect of the novel and having teenagers face major problems. The team work and networking the teenagers develop was awesome!”
“I loved the book. It is a quick fun read with action and a good plot. I am not into tech or computer lingo but the story grabbed me. Enjoy this book on a rainy weekend or at the beach.”
“I have to admit that this story is geared more towards techies and tweens than older women, such as myself, but that being said, the book was fun to read, it was an easy read with some cool ideas. I couldn't wait to get to the end to see how the main characters would handle such a momentous task as saving the earth. David lets you get to know the characters individually and you will be drawn to some more than others. All in all, if you are into video games and aliens, this book is for you.”
“A well thought out story and a really fun read”

 From Ash and Ruin: "When we finally came out of the root cellar, the house was gone, the barn was gone, and the king was dead.
The fields had been burned. The dray horses were charred bones weeks old. The cow was missing, undoubtedly a meal for troops. In the distance the castle which had once stood proudly was now a blackened lump, its towers like broken fingers in a burnt hand reaching upward for one last sign of hope."
