Distant Lands
Dark Horizon
The sky is turning black. The land is crumbling. The war has already begun.
For years, Jack Creed and his companions have fought to survive the lawless Wilds, where danger waits behind every shadow. But when a deadly force begins sweeping through the land, leaving villages in ruin and entire cities on edge, they are sent on a mission that could change the course of history—or end it altogether.
Beyond the Barrier, something ancient has awakened. Dark sorcery, long thought buried, is clawing its way back into the world. As war brews on the horizon, alliances will be tested, secrets will come to light, and Jack will have to face the ghosts of his past before they consume him.
There is no time to run. No room for doubt. Only one question remains—how much are they willing to sacrifice to stop what’s coming?
About The Author
Karen T. Lockridge
Growing up in rural Texas, Karen Lockridge was always drawn to the power of storytelling. As a child, she wandered the yellow brick road with Dorothy, rafted the Mississippi with Huck and Tom, and later ventured into the vast worlds of Asimov and Tolkien. What captivated her most were the deep bonds of friendship in those tales—unlikely allies uniting against impossible odds.
Over the years, Karen collected experiences, observed people, and imagined places that would one day form Distant Lands, a world where duty, loyalty, and survival collide. Dark Horizon, the first book in the series, introduces a cast of characters fighting to hold their world together as darkness looms on the horizon. It’s an adventure born from a lifelong love of epic journeys, where camaraderie is just as powerful as magic.

A refreshing story in a crowded space
"I started reading this with no preconceptions, but with a sci-fi and fantasy lilt. To say this was a new and refreshing take on the genre is an understatement. The characters come to life in the mind with little effort and the story carries fluidly throughout. The only regret i hold is that the 2nd chapter in this epic story is not available to read yet."
