The Hero Of Varay — Rick Shelley

Description

The Hero of Varay is the second book in Rick Shelley’s Varayan Memoir fantasy trilogy, following The Wizard at Mecq. It continues the story of Gil Tyner, an ordinary college student from our world who discovers he’s the heir to a noble title in the parallel world of Varay.

Now firmly entrenched in the medieval realm of Varay, Gil must rise to new challenges as he’s drawn deeper into court intrigue, warfare, and ancient rivalries. Named the Hero of Varay, Gil is expected to live up to the legendary title — but the road is fraught with magic, monsters, and political treachery. As war looms and enemies plot, Gil must balance his earthly sensibilities with the customs of a world where honour and swordplay dictate a man’s worth.

A classic portal fantasy, Shelley’s The Hero of Varay blends coming-of-age adventure with political drama and heroic quests. It’s a satisfying pick for readers who enjoy traditional fantasy with a modern outsider navigating an ancient world of danger and destiny.
