"...this is no sweet gentle innocent girl story." -Piers Anthony
Several weeks ago, Kyla saved the world.
Or did she? Though Erebus, god of darkness, remains trapped in Kyla's care, the world has fallen into disarray. Former followers of Erebus roam as bandits and desperate refugees struggle to survive. The people of the World of Order doubt King Oberon's reports of Erebus' defeat.
Meanwhile, a mysterious patron has imposed herself on Kyla's life and sends her on a series of dangerous assignments. Can Kyla cope with the discovery of her patron's true identity? And who can she trust when the World of Order falls into chaos?
As the world falls apart and the wicked struggle to claim control of it, Kyla must keep herself together against the pain of her own internal struggles.
Bryant's fascination with fantasy and storytelling began at a play in the gymnasium of a small school in the village of Rosemary, Alberta, Canada. In this play, the main character encountered a talking wall, of all things! which blew four-year-old Bryant's mind. He became an avid reader, and in elementary school he particularly loved Lloyd Alexander's 'Chronicles of Prydain', and perhaps developed a bit of a school-boy crush on Princess Eilonwy. Years later he decided to write books of his own, and after a few false starts opted to self-publish after discovering that agents and publishers were really into love triangles at the time, and he wasn't into writing them. So the breath of life was given to Elf Mastery, which led to the sequels, Elf Doubt and Elf Righteous, as well as Loveless Amends, which was written in two weeks for NaNoWriMo 2020.
Bryant's goals have now shifted from writing books to creating animated series. Will this dream come to pass? Stay tuned to find out!
I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. This one picked up where the other left off. Kayla is on to another mission. It is still kind of grim for the people of this world. She is doing the quest which seems to put her life in danger. She is questioning those that are around her and she is not sure who to trust anymore. She does not seem to be the sweet girl she was when the series started. It ends on a cliff hanger with action still going on. I want to know what happens next.
