The Larion spell table has been dormant for nearly a thousand Twinmoons. It waits in a forgotten chamber in Sandcliff Palace, the abandoned Larion Senate stronghold on Eldarn's North Sea. The spell table holds the power to see the people of the 5 lands safely through the oppression and brutality that have haunted them for generations, but without Lessek's key it is a worthless slab of granite. Unfortunately for Steven Taylor—the would-be sorcerer from Colorado—he overlooked the nondescript key the night he fell through the far portal into Eldarn. Now Steven must race across American to retrieve the key and free Eldarn's people rests, but Nerak—the fallen Larion dictator—is hot on his heels. If he fails, the lives of untold millions will be lost forever.

Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Scott continues the fantasy trilogy, created from the notes he and his late father-in-law Gordon wrote when they plotted the series. In this grand-scale installment, bank manager Steven Taylor races across the United States to retrieve the magical Lessek's Key and help his friend Mark Jenkins, who is trapped in the fantasy world Eldarn. Nerak, demonic sorcerer-prince of Eldarn, leaves a trail of horror across modern-day Colorado as Mark and his companions travel to the home of the murdered Larion Senate and the magical table opened by the key, while Steven's girlfriend, Hannah Sorenson, struggles through a forest of ghosts and mysterious visions and attempts to infiltrate Nerak's palace. The story moves along briskly, though Mark's sudden racial sensitivity and expert archer Garec's crisis of conscience are jarring diversions. Much is left dangling to await the concluding volume, due out in March. (Jan.)

5.0 out of 5 stars
The second book in The Eldarn Sequence.,
By B.K.Price "Fantasy Doctor" (Liverpool,England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lessek's Key: The Eldarn Sequence Book 2 (Paperback)
This is the second book in the amazing Eldarn Sequence, here is a bit of the story.We begin we Steven being transported back back to Colorado to find Leesk's Key and bring it back to Eldran, closely flowing in his footsteps is the evil sorcerer Nerik, who will do anything to find the key and unleash his master from the fold and also kill his biggest threat, Steven. Luckily for Steven his manages to find the key and escape back to Eldarn, but not without Nerik causing havoc and mayhem in his wake. When back in Eldarn Steven manages to find his friends and continue his quest to find Hannah and also to destroy the evil that Nerik has created. Also on Eldarn Mark has to come to terms with the death of his lover and in doing so means to kill all of Neriks minions, in doing this he finds himself losing his mind and humanity. Across the other end of Eldarn Hannah and her friend are setting off on a perilous journey to Nerik's palace in the hope of of sending her back home to Colorado, but on her way she will face untold dangers and the loss of good friends. This is a great story, plenty of action and adventure, magic and battles, demons and ghosts. This is by far the the best portal fantasy i've read to date, I would recommend it to any fantasy fan. P.s, One thing I would like to point out is that this novel was written by a different author Robert Scott as the author of the first novel Jay Gordon passed away, this is why while both stories are great, there are very slight differences in the writing styles.
5.0 out of 5 stars

These two authors together = unstoppable. Once I picked up the first book, I was hooked. Couldn't put them down and had to read them all.
