Clarksburg, MD, March 29, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Ben Sanford, who grew up in Western New York, has completed his new book, “The Chronicles of Arax Book Three: The Battle of Yatin”: a thrilling and intriguing fantasy novel that takes readers deep into the Torry Realms.

It was from these thousands of interactions that he drew inspiration for the characters in his books. He currently resides in Maryland with his family.
While the Torries and Jenaii celebrate their victory at Corell, the battle in Yatin grows dire, forcing difficult choices on Princess Corry. As acting regent of the northern realm, she is faced with a war-torn land bracing for winter, while her brother fights a desperate battle far away. Heeding her council, she lends him the only aid she can, much to her misgivings.
Sanford writes, “Torry Cavalry harried the gargoyle band, cutting down stragglers along the periphery, catching the creatures on open ground. Terin’s magantor swept over the grassy fields, the force of its wings bending the golden reeds of the dying grassy as he passed. The great avian outstretched its talons, snatching a gargoyle from the ground, its claws piercing the creature’s back and breast, crushing its lungs as it lifted before releasing the gargoyle through its ascent. Terin looked back as the gargoyle dropped like a stone, its broken body impacting the soil amidst its fellows as other magantor riders repeated the process all around him. Flashes of laser alit the sky off his left, where Kato’s magantor circled the enemy, dispatching them at will. The Torry Cavalry herded the gargoyles closer, whilst the magantors plucked them from their clustered ranks. It was an effective tactic of destroying small bands of gargoyles in quick order. This was the third such group Terin helped them destroy since he left Corell. Terin’s magantor circled back, sweeping below, snatching another gargoyle in its talons.”
