Guardians of the Field

A field of magic. A doomsday cry. A city waiting in the ruins for a messenger of hope...

Karen is held prisoner by a man whose need for revenge consumes him. Strangely, Karen's daughter Yorajil, born a scryer of mystic power, is able to control his rages. When he forces Karen to cross a land gutted by war, she seeks to find the field of the Esarad, home of all scryers. The guardians of the Esarad are watching.

Her oppressor is obsessed with finding a hidden route through the ice mountains of Scrinac into the Esarad to annihilate it. Yorajil insists she can show him the way.

The journey of mother and daughter alike is haunted by the repeated betrayal of Yorajil's father, whose fierce ambition and greed has consumed him.

Each traveler is drawn inexorably toward the ruined city of Alcedama, its bloodstained streets, and the doomsday trigger that lies at its heart.

I call my website "Stories from an Unexpected Universe" because that is how my stories come into being. Storytelling is such an ancient tradition. My hope is that the stories and books I write bring you a good read, a respite from the frenetic pace we sometimes live, and most of all, a path into other ways of seeing.
