Author Raymond Keith tales keep getting better and better! I just finished “Ranger’s Calling: The Towers of Reweard.” This is Keith’s finest work so far. The heroes are noble, winsome and self-sacrificing while the villains are resourceful and daunting. The world-building dramatically expands while the storytelling continues to build in Keith’s distinctive voice. This is a voyage of courage and despair where doing the right thing may carry a heavy cost.
Rafnir is one of favorite characters of all time!
…difficult to put down…definitely a page turner!
Keeps one on pins and needles to see the next leap of faith in battle…

Ranger’s Calling:
The Towers of Renweard
Book 2 of the Ranger’s Calling Series
A Christian Ranger Fantasy series
LAUNCHES JULY 1ST
The wall was supposed to hold forever.
After fighting the fierce eshkin raiders in Wynchell, Ranger Galieb Half-elfin and his griffin familiar Rafnir answer a call to the mountain fortress on the edge of the wilderness. For centuries, the Black Towers of Swartmael have guarded the kingdom of Lageheim against all threats from the north. But when Galieb scouts an army that stretches beyond counting, he realizes no wall can stand against what’s coming. Eshkin warriors. Lumbering giants. Blue wizards wielding ancient magic. Terror birds and other fell beasts. And leading them all, a power that even the mighty dragon Shethar once knew and feared.
But the greatest enemy was already inside.
As Galieb and the knight Sir Erik Blackmane rally the defenders, they discover that the mysterious forsaken god is ready to reveal himself in a new terrifying form, claiming the land he once ruled. His followers have infiltrated every level of Lageheim’s society, even corrupting sworn knights into treason. When King Reinhart III makes his final stand atop the dragon Shethar, the cost of heroism will be measured in the fall of the mighty.
