War has come to Havaen. After thousands of years, the return of Peresus’ evil to the world has brought with it chaos and destruction, as he seeks to finally complete his quest to conquer the realm. Already, the Aquaron Kingdom has fallen to his seemingly unstoppable might, and it appears only a matter of time before the rest of Havaen follows suit. As Peresus’ vast army begins to sweep across the land, obliterating all in their path, it is clear that even the power of Saberen, the Hero, will not be enough to defeat them. Only by fulfilling the ancient prophecy of the Hero – by uniting the three Sacred Keys and retrieving the Supremos from the Golden Realm – will Saberen have sufficient strength to overcome Peresus and the malevolent forces he commands. But one of the Sacred Keys is currently missing, its location unknown, and Peresus seeks to gain access to the Golden Realm too – to seize the Supremos for himself and use its limitless divine power to at last finish what he started all those millennia ago. To save Havaen, there can only be one outcome. Saberen must succeed, or the world will be plunged into darkness forever…

In the realm of Havaen, 16-year-old elf Saberen is troubled by nightmares of a growing darkness threatening the peace of his people. Little does he know the great power hidden within him is the world’s only hope. An evil sorcerer, named Sarnav, plans to gather the three Sacred Keys, and use them to steal from its resting place the Supremos – a divine relic containing the very essences of the gods.Saberen must fulfil the prophecy of the Hero, and journey throughout Havaen to find the Supremos instead. If he does not and Sarnav succeeds, the world may be lost for good…

A year and a half has passed since Saberen’s quest to stop Sarnav ended with the evil sorcerer’s defeat in the Razed Mountains, leaving the world safe and at peace once more. Now though, an even greater threat grows. Far to the north, a force stronger even than Sarnav is awakening - a force that, if Saberen cannot stop it, threatens to plunge the entire realm into chaos and war…

Ben Smith: Professional footballer. Recognise the name? Of course you don't. That's because most of Smith's years in the game were spent outside the vaunted, big-money environs of the Premier League - and this sporting memoir is all the more entertaining as a result.1995: an adolescent Ben arrives at the training ground of one of England's biggest clubs to begin his journey and realise his dream of playing top-flight professional football. Aged just sixteen, he shares pre-season sessions at Arsenal with the likes of Dennis Bergkamp and Ian Wright. Surely this is the start of a stellar career?Instead, the next seventeen years saw the bright young star descend the ranks from Highbury to obscurity. With seasons playing for the likes of Reading, Yeovil, Southend, Hereford, Shrewsbury and Weymouth - and a career including three promotions, one relegation and some very memorable FA Cup games - Ben's story is one of a quintessential journeyman footballer.Candidly describing the negotiations, insecurities, injuries, relocations, personal implications and wet Saturday afternoons playing in front of 500 people, Journeyman offers a unique insight into the unvarnished life of a lower-league player - so far removed from the stories of pampered Premiership stars - as well as documenting the many teammates, opponents, managers and coaches who left an indelible mark on Ben's eclectic career.Refreshingly unsentimental and often hilarious, Smith's story is essential reading for all true fans of the not-always-so-beautiful game.
