The Empires - Paperback

by David F. Farris (Author)

The world was deceived, and now its power players must rebound. The war in the kingdoms has ended, but the Empires have entered the picture in a catastrophic way. Focus shifts from human threats to those of divinity, and a select handful of humans are recruited into the Empirical War to help even the scales.

Bryson must adapt to a foreign land and new supporting cast around him, learning that not all of the Bozani are as pure as his culture had been made to believe. Lofty goals are laid out for him, such as replacing one of the most ancient entities in Kuki Sphaira. And what happens when he learns who has been recruited into the opposition's ranks?

Meanwhile, the kingdoms continue to recover from the war. An investigation into Lost Wisdom brings to light past treaties between Archain royalty and the Thousand-Layer Loess. Legendary families resurface. Rebellion surges in Dunami. A Jestivan enters the Dark Realm's school to recruit two Diatia. Another will infiltrate the dangerous Linsaniun Mounds.

Among the journeys is heartbreak.

Death has claimed many already. It will not relent.
