Thanatium Heroes by Edward Loom is a dark-epic fantasy saga centered on Thaidren, a young man born into a legacy he neither asked for nor understands. As his latent powers emerge and forces both infernal and political close in, he must confront betrayal, sacrifice, and the true nature of his destiny. With demons, necromancy, ancient magic, and grim stakes woven through its richly built world, this series doesn’t shy away from moral ambiguity or brutal paths.
Shards of Fate (Vol. 1) sets this in motion: Thaidren grapples with his origins, the burdens of expectation, and those who would use him—or destroy him.
The follow-up, Cries of Embers Past (Vol. 2), pushes deeper into the shadows, revealing the cost of power, the weight of history, and the fragile line between salvation and ruin.
Expect intense action, moral complexity, and a world that’s as beautiful as it is merciless.
