William Wilde and the Sons of Deceit: An Anchored Worlds novel (The Chronicles of William Wilde Book 4) Kindle Edition

The raid on Sinskrill was a success, but the battle is only just beginning. William realizes the stakes at hand. He still has to find a way to prevent Lord Shet, the god of the mahavans, from returning to Earth from the faraway world of Seminal. If he doesn't, Arylyn will be destroyed.

But strange visions plague his mind: an albino monster who infects William with anger. It is Sapient Dormant, the Overward of the necrosed and tasked by Shet to recover a long lost talisman of power. The Servitor of Sinskrill also advances his own plans. He's learned Arylyn's location and will do whatever he can to bring a crippling blow to the magi.

Serena struggles with her own path, torn between loyalty and love for William and a desire to see her family safe. Rukh and Jessira seek to provide balance to the magi. Only they have the skill and training to keep Arylyn safe, but their memories of their shared past life on Arisa remain fragmented, and their greatest allies, their Kesarins—Aia and Shon—are nowhere to be found.

Forged from the unlikeliest of metals, a hero summons the depths of his courage.

Review

Fantastic action, intriguing world, and truly unique characters. This is really great fun. Highly entertaining, and highly recommended.Dyrk Ashton, award-winning author of Paternus: Rise of Gods
If you're looking for a tale strong in wonder and adventure, you've found it. William Wilde and the Necrosed manages to take you into a world of powerful magic and great danger while still telling a story of heart and character. Read and enjoy!
David Farland, New York Times Bestselling fantasy author

Set in the 1980s with an abundance of references to iconic songs, movies, and nerd-lore, William Wilde and the Necrosed is a wondrous, exciting ride with the timeless draw of STRANGER THINGS and the magical adventure of the best urban fantasy.
Jacob Cooper, award-winning author of The Dying Lands Chronicles

5-Stars!. . . one of those books that immediately draw you in . . . The story makes you believe in magic again, or it rekindles your hope that somewhere, somehow, magic truly does exist.

About the Author

Davis Ashura is a writer of such sublime depth and beauty that his works have been known to draw a tear from even the hardest of hearts.

Just kidding. But he does write.

Davis is humble, yet refers to himself in the third person. He resides in North Carolina, sharing a house with his wonderful wife who somehow overlooked Davis' eccentricities and married him anyway. As proper recompense for her sacrifice, Davis then unwittingly turned his wonderful wife into a nerd-girl. To her sad and utter humiliation, she knows exactly what is meant by 'Kronos'. Living with them are their two rambunctious boys, both of whom have at various times helped turn Davis' once lustrous, raven-black hair prematurely white (it sure sounds prettier than the dirty gray it actually is). And of course, there are the obligatory stray, black cats (all authors have cats - it's required by the union). They are lazy, and yet, somehow, they complete the household. As for Davis, when not working - nay laboring - in the creation of works of fiction so grand some might few read them, he practices medicine, but only when the insurance companies allow it.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Davis Ashura is a bestselling author and a full-time practicing physician, who is best known for several fantasy series that are all interconnected and part of his Anchored Worlds universe. The proper sequence to read the series would be The Castes and the OutCastes, William Wilde and then Instrument of Omens. The Eternal Ephemera comes last, well after the others. But truthfully, you actually don’t have to read any of other series in order to enjoy the one you happen to pick up first. Davis is considerate that way.

Davis is married and shares a house with his wonderful wife and two sons. There is, of course, the obligatory stray cats (all authors have cats—it's required by the union) and a gnarly-toothed rescue dog.

I am, overall, enjoying this series. Having started with the Instrument of Omens series first, the one after this one, I am confused and have lots of questions. Can’t say more because spoilers. I definitely do want to know more though. It can be a little slow going, and sometimes an over abundance of world building, and there are errors. But the story is told well, and look forward to reading more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great story, needs editing
Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2019

The characters and storyline are so well developed! I really enjoyed the continuing saga. However, the header read “chapter 1” for almost all the chapters. The other headers were out of order. Meanwhile, a lot of prepositions were missing in sentences and some grammatical errors ( ex: “they winded around “should have read “they wound around “). I hope the editing is better on the next one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid addition to the initial trilogy
Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2019
Well written characters that continue to evolve along with the growing story. Each successive volume has expanded the universe more without making the story hard to follow. Thoroughly enjoyable series for readers of all ages.

4.0 out of 5 stars I don’t know how to feel about the series after this book
Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2022
I liked William at first, but the whole Serena situation just made me dislike and skip the parts where it was them. I think introducing Rukh and Jessira to the series was great but it makes it hard not to compare them with William and Serena. Yes they would obviously be lacking but they just aren’t strong characters for me compared to R and J.

William more notably takes a back seat in this book allowing a couple of other characters to come forth to elevate our story to new heights
