Delayed In Transit: Twin Blade (3)

In this third installment of the thrilling Delayed In Transit series, five years have passed since the war for the Empire ended. Order has returned. The people of the Empire have rebuilt much of their home and look to the future with hope. During these joyous times, two young boys are being pursued by forces unknown. And in their time of need, they seek the aid of one of the most powerful forces on the continent.

The Porters, reformed and reforged under the guiding hand of their Grand Master, have risen from the ashes and stand so tall they are frightening.

Now, two of its newest members seek to aid the young men in their mission to survive and live free. But as they listen to their story, they realize that the most dangerous part of their quest might not be the actual fighting. It may simply be bringing to light things that the Empress of Eri Dachi may find quite concerning.

After saving the boys, the Porters come to a frightening conclusion – that these two have a connection with their own Grand Master. But the nature of that connection threatens their own safety. Not from the Grand Master himself, but from HIS WIFE, the Empress of Eri Dachi.

Albert Lugot, THE PORTER, Grand Master of the Porters and now King-Consort of the Empire of Eri Dachi, agrees to help the boys, even in the face of danger from his wife and those pursuing the boys.

No one could hope to understand just what kind of danger the boys have found themselves in.

Ghosts from the past, long thought to be dead, are not always quiet.

THE PORTER may find that this time, he is not powerful enough to protect even himself... let alone his children.

Daniel Taylor is the author of the Delayed in Transit book series. Daniel believes that stories grow in the telling. With every pass or hand over, things get added or removed. True histories become fables and stores, which become legends and myths.

Delayed In Transit started as just a notion, a general wondering, about what a person with the title of Porter would become in a fantasy world. How would they be treated or act. What could they aspire to be, a menial laborer or something more.

Originally, Delayed In Transit wasn't very long. The story would have ended with Second Blade, without a follow on. But as the world was built and the details added, more stories began to crawl up out of the woodwork.

And so, he continued to write. Daniel filled in details about the world he had not touched on before, he had to fill in the blank pages on the map to make it make sense. It grew from just a small idea into something larger than he could ever have thought possible.
