The Weave of Shadows
(2026)(The sixth book in the Kael Brightsun Chronicles series)
A Story by Zackery Arbela
He woke buried in the desert
and saw the end of the world.
Poisoned and left to die beneath the burning sands, Kael of the Mountains should have perished alone. Instead, he witnesses something no mortal was meant to see visions of ancient cities, fallen empires, and a war older than mankind itself.
When he awakens, he is no longer free.
Captured by slavers, Kael is imprisoned within the Bloody Flower Well, a hidden oasis ruled by the cruel High Whip. Thyra the woman he crossed the desert to find has already been sold south to the Seven Cities. Every day he remains captive carries her farther beyond his reach.
To escape, Kael must ally with a scholar who speaks of forbidden knowledge: sorcery, the lost race of the niyaranki, and a power that devours the minds of those who wield it. But the deeper he digs into the secrets of the Bloody Flower Well, the more he understands he is no longer merely hunting slavers.
He is being drawn into a struggle far older than kingdoms.
If he fails, he will lose Thyra forever.
If he succeeds he may unleash something the world was never meant to face.
