The Army of the Undead — Ronald Wintrick

The Army of the Undead - Alternate Reality Wizards and Warriors .......... The Great Peace reigned upon the land. None thought it could be shattered. Then in the east grew a great army. It appeared from nowhere and quickly overwhelmed the first of the four kingdoms. The rumors that this new army had risen from the dead, actually climbed from their graves, were hard to believe. That a Black Necromancer had risen wasn't surprising, though it had been a long time since the last. No Necromancer in known history had ever been able to raise the dead! The Necromancer and his disciples quickly defeat the powerful Sisters defending the first kingdom and the Army of the Undead is moving towards the next realm! Timan is only seventeen years old when the winds of war begin to blow across his family's isolated farmstead. Fleeing survivors bring the stories of the horrors seen. The stories told by the survivors who pass their farm, of having seen living people eaten alive only to change into one of the undead minutes later were difficult to believe. The stories of loved ones, fathers, mothers, husbands, wives, sisters, brothers all climbing from family grave plots to attack their own families were even harder to believe. An even more unbelievable story that the Necromancer who commanded this horde rode a massive black reptile that would dwarf a land-sloth! Timan was to learn a great many things in a short amount of time. That the Gift was inherent in his bloodline! That his own mother was actually one of the mysterious Sisters of Allamar and the most powerful Sorceress in the land! That his father had been Commander of the Army! Most importantly Timan was to discover, as his training was begun and progressed, was that he was the most powerful Wizard in the land and to him fell the task of defeating the Necromancer.
