When Comes the Firetide: Emergents

By Carissa Starr

The Old God, Uvall, has awoken - and his devotees now praise him with blood.

The ground is shifting, rippling throughout Tybraes and The World Beyond. The fragile balance between clans, empires and belief systems is further fractured. Prophecy speaks of unity, but history remembers only war. To survive what is coming, enemies must stand together, truths must be unearthed, and those marked by power they never asked for must decide what they are willing to become.

How does one choose to identify when the institutions that shaped them have fallen away?

Khes walks a perilous line between death and divinity, haunted by what she was and what Tybraes asks of her, questioning her world paradigm. Zakeriel, a Jaed Knight floundering for purpose, must confront the man he was raised to be and the man he chooses to be, seeking certainty in the shadows of perceived failures. Together, they discover who they are when all pretense is stripped away, and form a bond that defies anyone's understanding of the Elhia.

As civil war, faith and ambition collide, the greatest threat may not be the awakened god itself, but the certainty of those who believe they serve it.

Dark, lyrical and unflinching, Emergents is the powerful sequel to Inundation.
