Epic Fantasy

The World of the Stone Island


The Wanderer

Book 1

Lucinda, called Land-Stepper, has sung in an alehouse, stirred potions for a mage, and gone wherever the wind blows her, all because she refuses to accept her birthright.

When her one-time protector, Sophia, the god of wisdom, demands that she bring Stephen, the wounded lord of West Randburg, to be sacrificed in an ancient rite to appease an unreliable ally, naturally Lucinda refuses.

Sophia can’t force her will on Lucinda but she can . . . negotiate.

To survive, Lucinda must convince Stephen to claim his own dubious birthright, figure out how to outwit an elder god, and accept who and what she really is.

In the end, she will be forced to learn the true meaning of sacrifice.

The Dreamer

Book 2

Lucinda was once separated from her lover, Lord Stephen, by his status. Now they’re separated by hers. She’s the human aspect of a god, a burden she never wished to assume. But her agreement with the god Sophia has yielded one worthwhile result: her sister Bertha is no longer a hostage.

When Lucinda undertakes a journey to bring Bertha home and to reunite with Stephen, she quickly realizes neither will be a simple task. The gods don’t want Bertha to survive. Nor do they want Lucinda to find her way back to her lover.

With Simon, Stephen’s knight, and Meretropia, the queen’s sorcerer, Lucinda must discover why the gods are against her while making her way through the snares they have set, all in order to fulfill her heart’s desire.

But dreams come at a cost. Lucinda is determined to pay it—until she finds out what it is.

The Seeker

Over the objections of Sophia, the god to whom she is united, the wanderer Lucinda sets out to get her child back from the Sige queen who stole him.

On her way to Sumorselde, the queen’s city, she discovers that not only has Sophia betrayed her but her lover, Lord Stephen, is arranging his marriage to another. Distraught, she stumbles into a deadly confrontation with her father, Brihtnoth, and flees with Stephen into the tunnels under the city.

Their only hope for untangling the snares set for them lies in finding the Well of the Worlds and making the age-old sacrifice at the foot of the Tree of Life—but not all of the gods want them to survive the journey.
