    About this ebook

    Mawunyo crouched low behind his shield. Nasim lay beneath the shifting tower of fire, seconds away from death.

    No.

    He would not allow it. Eight years married. Twenty-one years best friends. He would not lose Nasim.

    The curse of the towers of fire would be stopped. Mawunyo would do whatever he had to, face whatever had caused them, to save Nasim.

    Shifting Towers of Fire is a tense Fantasy story that will transport you to a whole new world full of terror and threats beyond comprehension.
