Moonless Sky: Lydia's Story

by Jeremy A. Harper, Sky West (Editor)

Seventy years ago, many humans took part in a game. Marked by tattoos, people tried to kill one another to breed greater power and escape their lots in life. As a result, a catastrophic event occurred. Reborn from the cultivated powers, a demon scorched the land, evaporated oceans, and brought overall ruin to Earth. Humans have become all but extinct, and as a result, Lydia has grown up without knowing her parents. Raised by her grandparents, she lives and trains in one of the last bastions of humanity, working to become a great blacksmith like her grandmother, blissfully unaware of her lineage, and her fated role in restoring a barren Earth.

Moonless Sky

I've never written a book like this one before. The descriptions of how water, wind, and earth are used in battle or otherwise, is mind blowing. For that reason, and the story of the characters, ranks this a five star book. Light edits would perfect this novel.
