Embers of an Age - Book 2 in the Blood War Trilogy

 


Lathah has fallen.

Arrin leads a weary group of survivors from the ruins. He presses on in search of O'hra to take the fight to the Grol, but as he nears the Sha'ree homeland, an unexpected adversary bars the way.

With enemies massing on all sides, Arrin is forced to take his search deep inside the Funeral Sands. The survivors suffer the terrors of the desert as their lives and hopes dwindle by the moment. As the losses mount, Arrin wonders if the price of saving Ahreele might be more than he can bear.

Excerpt:

The dead in shattered heaps about his feet, Uthul knew only the battle for life.

He waded through the Grol corpses, their pooled blood tacky beneath his boots, and willed his scavenged sword to work. He knew no mercy for the beasts inadvertently born of Ree;s holy flesh. He could afford none.

He'd caught them unaware as Arrin and the Pathran, Kirah, cleaved through their clustered ranks, but the Grol had been quick to recover. Where at first he'd sent a dozen of the beasts to earth for every glancing strike he'd taken, he now traded them nearly blow for blow as they clamored around him. They were wearing him down.

"The book is fast, action-packed, contains plenty of gore and grotesque monsters, and it's just a blast to read. Bring on book 3." ~ Ryan Lawler
