The debut trilogy in Brian Rathbone's World of Godsland fantasy series.
Echoes of the ancients’ power are distant memories, tattered and faded by the passage of eons, but that is about to change.
A new dawn has arrived. Latent abilities, harbored in mankind’s deepest fibers, wait to be unleashed. Ancient evils awaken, and old fears ignite the fires of war.
In times such as these, ordinary people have the power to save the world . . . or destroy it.
Excerpt
Life is the greatest of all mysteries, and though I seek to solve its many
riddles, my deepest fear is that I will succeed.
—CiCi Bajur, philosopher
Immersed in its primordial glow, a comet soared through space with
incredible speed. Three thousand years had passed since it last shed its
light upon the tiny blue planet known to its inhabitants as Godsland,
and the effects had been cataclysmic. A mighty host of comets followed
the same elliptical orbit as the first as they returned from the farthest
reaches of the solar system. Their light had already charged the atmosphere
of Godsland, and the comets themselves would soon be visible to
the naked eye.
The cycle of power would begin anew. Radiant energy, though still
faint, raced toward Godsland, bearing the power of change.
