The Outcasts (The Fragmented) | Paperback | 2025 | by Paul E Smith (Author)| Part of: The Fragmented Fantasy Series

A dangerous cult, led by a man with a burning desire for vengeance and his fearsome ally, is planning a rebellion.

In the secluded town of Valmont, teenagers are dying and not from boredom! Their bodies are discovered, marked only with ugly blisters and blackened extremities.

Drevin, Teelan and Cali were hoping for a quieter life after fleeing from Canor. But instead they get dragged into solving the mysterious deaths and finding those responsible. And for that, they must work together.

However, that is easier said than done as they have drifted apart. Drevin finds more satisfaction in training new guards than in putting up with Teelan. Whilst Teelan enjoys his freedom from Drevin’s strict morality and has found someone to share his macabre work with. And while Cali is yearning for some excitement, she still struggles to master her prodigious powers before they overwhelm her.

As Drevin tries to unite them, he uncovers secrets that threaten to tear the group apart just when the town needs them the most.
