Jenora of Edge wonders if her friends still live inside the pillar of fire they created. The young monk Pol is sent to investigate its link to an immortal threat. Their meeting sets in motion a quest for the source of evil in their world -- and gives them a new, unknowable ally on that quest. For the girl Ash is compelled to find that source: the Pendulum. The story begun in Pyre continues with new characters, new locations, and new adventures in wonder, light, darkness, and magic.
Award-winning author Eric J. Hull writes speculative fiction with elements spanning fantasy, slipstream, magical realism, urban dystopia, and horror. Recently, he’s been dabbling in sci-fi comedy.
He has published short fiction and poetry in various magazines and literary journals. He co-wrote and published a series of high fantasy novels with his longtime collaborator C. M. Stultz. Once, he told an ongoing improvisational story every night for over three years running.
Eric’s inspirations include Ray Bradbury, Kelly Link, Shirley Jackson, and N. K. Jemisin. He crafts his words from the damp little burg of Seattle, Washington, USA. He likes cats more than dogs, Star Trek over Star Wars, and kindness most of all.
