Two years ago I released Spirit of Life.
I thought that was it. I was done with the world of Myrrah, as sad as that made me. But the story was over and I was moving on.
Funny how things work out.
I had no intention of continuing. But the characters… they wouldn’t leave me alone! The story line of the Rise of the Fifth Order might have been tied up, but I had left the characters with so many problems that I couldn’t help thinking about them – or hearing their voices.
Darag, angry as he was, was planning to confront the powerful Ashanti to ‘deliver’ the message from Jeif and Leifa. Zhao was going to head home with a chip on his shoulder. Ria is trying to create a Fifth Order, comprised of a group of people who had been persecuted for centuries by the other Four Orders, while working with some of the leaders who lead that persecution. Niri and Khodan are moving in with the dragon Isha. And on top of all THAT, Sinika is going to be imprisoned in Solaire, which now houses the Sphere of Fire. There are so many problems there it isn’t funny.
But there is more then problems. There is a story, one that reaches back to the very beginning of the world and which threatens to end it.
It is time for that story to begin!
Spark of Defiance, Book 1 of Games of Fire, is coming March 30th!
And this is its absolutely stunning cover…
