Overview of The Great War

The Great War(working title) is the prequel to Forlorn, being the first book chronologically in the series. The Great War is aptly named due to it's plotline being centered around a war between the two greatest powers in the world, Aeranor and The Rodhiemian Empire. The story follows the style of Forlorn in that it is split between two perspectives of a connected storyline. One side follows Zourn Aqual, a young man who joins the military of the Rodhiemian Empire after his family is killed by Aeronean troops. The other side of the story follows the exploits of Roland, Leanne, Alistair, and Malik, the generals of Aeranor. The former three are newly appointed generals, Malik being the only veteran. The story is centered around the war itself, and each character's reaction to the horrors of war.
