Stoneslayer: Book Two Fallout continues the dark high fantasy series as father-daughter strangers clash while a demon plots their demise
Author Candace Lynn Talmadge’s Stoneslayer: Book Two Fallout continues the dark high fantasy tale with a daughter-father fight unfolding in public and demo-driven death plots coming together in private.
Stoneslayer: Book Two Fallout is for adult readers who crave the sweeping scope of Dune, the emotional fire of A Court of Thorns and Roses, and the layered complexity of The Broken Earth Trilogy. It is for those who enjoy the works of authors like George R.R. Martin, Robin Hobb, or Ursula K. Le Guin, or are drawn to fiction that explores reincarnation, past lives, and the paranormal.
Set in a lost world, this dark high fantasy series has substance, exploring themes of racial and sexual bigotry, income inequality, past lives, spiritual awakening, and the timeless struggle between decency and demonic depravity.
Between healing the king and her best friend, Azgard outcast Helen Andros clashes repeatedly with her powerful father. She pays an ever-rising price until her heedless words lead to a brutal military discipline that scars her for life.
Otherworldly mentor Maguari takes Helen into two past lives with her father to help her release her anger and fear of loss.
Is she strong enough to tell her father she loves him before he endures savage reprisal for his relationship with her mother? Can she endure a loveless marriage while yearning for another man?
While the Temple openly wars with her father, Helen is the unspoken target. She also fights off the Stoneslayer’s relentless attacks on her sanity.Helen is about to come toe to toe with life-threatening peril—again.
