Genres: Adventure, Fantasy/SciFi/Speculative, LGBTQ+
Age Groups: 12-18, 18+
The war against the gods was just the beginning.
Mending the world unleashed chaos. With Alea and Arman gone and the queen dead, Athrolan faces civil war. The kingdom fractures between two heirs—the disinherited and senile Daymir Blackhouse, and the Dhoah’ Laen’s rumored child. Except Alea’s mad son never knew of the power in his veins. Imprisoned in Ban, which teeters on the edge of its own war, his fragile mind may not survive the week, let alone a battle for the crown.
Rih, the soldier who found him and daughter to the Banis emperor, sees more than an enemy in Athrolan, and uses her inability to speak to burgeon her growing rebellion.
Whoever runs from the crown faster—and survives their bloodline’s curse—will determine the Athrolani heir.

Reviews
The San Francisco Review of Books
"As the fantasy expands, so does the author’s finesse. Again, the atmosphere surrounding Holmes’ saga is mesmerizing, enhancing the credibility of this fantasy tale. And that quality – related in eloquent and imaginative prose – suffuses every aspect of this installment. Holmes’s central heroine Alea grows in stature here, and she is accompanied by the cast of characters who have become credible even in their fantasy-imposed origins. Following this fantasy experience is addictive and thoroughly satisfying. Volume 4 awaits. Very highly recommended."
