The Cathexis series is a traditional fantasy with all the trimmings:
good, evil, love, hate, humor, sorrow, great heroics and the darkest
villainy. However, Cathexis is not set in a typical fantasy world.
Don't expect to find elves, dwarves or goblins. The creatures and magic
system are unique to the world of Cathexis. If you liked Goodkind's
Sword of Truth series, you will enjoy The Cathexis Series.
In this epic tale, the forces of magic come from two sources, the power
of life and the power of death. Sorcerers use the power of life and
their strength is
measure by their natural living aura, while
Necromancers bargain for the power of death across a rift between the
measure by their natural living aura, while
Necromancers
bargain for the power of death across a rift between the
living world and the Dark Plane.

Besides
the opposite faces of magic, there is a unique element in this
world, one that holds a simple power that makes this rare metal the
most precious in the world. It is named 'cathexis' and an object made
from this metal creates an imprint of the person who wears it. This
imprint is a thinking copy of their mind and personality and even has
the ability to hold their living soul when they die. With a Cathexis
artifact, you can, in essence, live forever. But there are only
nineteen and both the metal that made them and the art that molded them
are lost. |
