Haruffa Tales by Kenneth E Hautala
Genre: Retro Pulp Fantasy
Publisher: Friesen Press
Page Count: 345
SYNOPSIS:
BEYOND THE CONSTRAINTS OF TIME, LIFE, AND DEATH, THERE ARE POWERFUL UNSEEN FORCES.
Beyond the constraints of Time, Life, and Death, there are powerful unseen forces; these forces oversee the movements of life as the balance between good and evil heaves like the waves of the sea. And within the spiral of time, an eternal love causes the chords of the soul to thrum with an unrelenting anthem. This living, evolving melody is etched into the psyche of a most unlikely hero—a young, sickly child who was, by all accounts, not expected to survive, let alone be conceived.
In the city of Madra, two healers joyfully anticipate the birth of their long-awaited son, Haruffa. But after only a few short weeks, it becomes apparent that he is quite ill. Desperately petitioning the supernatural Aspects of Life, Death, and Time, the child’s parents beg for help at any price. Their cries for mercy are duly heard and answered.
The timing of Haruffa’s birth is, in fact, no accident: he is to be appointed and equipped to overcome the greatest threat to life upon the planet—the evil necromancer, Bruab, and his growing undead army.
Praise For Haruffa Tales: Five star review from Foreward Reviews
“With the next installment of Haruffa Tales, Specter Past, already on its way, now is the time to enter Haruffa’s world. For fantasy devotees or graphic-novel lovers looking for something a little different, Hautala and Trout’s collaboration is not to be missed.” -Pallas Gates McCorquodale

Haruffa’s reply was emotionless as he drew his compressed bloodmetal fighting sticks from the holsters strapped on either thigh.
“Would you believe me if I told you I was faking it?”
Haruffa swiftly ducked a back-handed swipe to his right temple and retreated a couple of steps, which allowed Balaji to pick up Navin’s daggers that were still lying on the sand. Haruffa pressed the indentations on each bloodmetal cylinder and they extended with a slight metallic scraping sound.
“Impressive,” said Balaji when he saw Haruffa’s sticks deploy.
