BOOK 2 of Never Leave Your Monastery: A young monk crosses the monastery gate for the first time-and enters a world of dragons, miracles, ancient evils, and a hidden war older than kingdoms.
Brother Jacob has lived his whole life in the quiet cloisters of Whitehaven, trained to defend the sacred mysteries of his order. But when a forbidden miracle erupts in the mountains beyond the monastery walls, Jacob is sent on a clandestine mission... and into a realm where the powers of Heaven contend with Shadow for the souls of men. He is secretly dubbed a quest-knigh
Now Jacob travels beyond the cloister as an Ammouric Knight and encounters:
- an ancient wizard of mysterious Egyptian lineage,
- a king who has resisted the prince of darkness,
- a team of deep-trackers who journey into the depths of earth,
- and an ancient evil called the Dire of Melancholy, whose dark magic spreads across the land.
Pursued by uncanny forces and drawn into the intrigues of hermits, warriors, and wandering saints, Jacob must discern whom to trust-and what it truly means to keep the sacred faith when the world itself seems to be unraveling.
Part spiritual epic, part medieval fantasy, and part journey of the soul, Never Leave Your Monastery invites readers into a world where miracles still break through the veil and the final battle between light and darkness begins in the heart of a single monk.
