Beyond Light

By Tom Davies

Two hundred years later, that is no longer enough.

Alycendor is alive again. The forests have returned. The Tree of Life covers the land in green, and the nightmare of Dominus has become history.

But Prince Andronicus sees what everyone else is willing to ignore.

Roads are failing. Knowledge is disappearing. Settlements can survive but have forgotten how to build something better. His father believes the world needs time.

Andronicus believes it needs heroes.

So he steals the most dangerous object in the imperial vault.

The Orb of Realms can cross worlds-and perhaps time itself. With guards closing in and no real plan, Andronicus makes one desperate request:

Find me heroes.

The Orb answers by throwing him two hundred years into the past, where he comes face-to-face with a legend every child in Alycendor knows.

Magnus.

Very much alive. Very large. And still carrying Woebringer.

What begins as a reckless search for help becomes a journey across worlds as Andronicus gathers an unlikely company of warriors, survivors, and men willing to step into somebody else's fight simply because leaving innocent people behind isn't an option.

But when they finally turn toward home, Andronicus discovers that the legends of Alycendor have hidden darker truths.

The ancient Guardians are failing.

Relics of impossible power are resurfacing.

Something is hunting what remains of a stolen divine light.

And the choices made by the heroes who saved Alycendor two centuries ago may have consequences none of them ever understood.

Andronicus went looking for heroes because he thought heroes could save his world.

He is about to learn that building a future may be harder than saving one.

Beyond Light is the second and concluding novel of The Stolen Light Duology-an epic fantasy of time travel, found family, ancient relics, brutal battles, dark humor, impossible worlds, and the stubborn belief that survival should never be the end of the story.
