Age of Conflict: Innocence Lost

By Eric M. Lindsey

With the nation on the cusp of the Civil War, can one young man forge his own future in an uncertain time? Or will he be pressed into a conflict he won't survive? Born and raised in Christiansburg, Virginia, Garit Hotzmire is tired of small-town life. Born prematurely and not expected to live, Garit is no stranger to hardship as he battles bullies, an unforgiving society, and his own physical disadvantages to live the life he's always wanted. He dreams of adventure, often to the amusement of his best friend and local blacksmith Pohl, and a chance to court the girl of his dreams, the beautiful and clever Beatrice. But even as Garit dreams of the future, uncertainty, and change is coming to the South as 1861 is ever nearer. Can he find a way to use his strengths to keep himself and his friends safe as war looms? Or will his dreams shatter under the cruel realities of the world around them? In this new series, debut author Eric Lindsey explores the conflict that divided the United States through the eyes of a boy who wants nothing more than peace. The Age of Conflict series explores love, friendship, navigating uncertainty in the darkest of times, and the power of hope for the future. Innocence Lost is the first title in the series with more coming very soon.
