About the book

Into the Raging Mountains

When gods intervene in minutiae, even the jaded take notice. Into the Raging Mountains is an extraordinary tale in which a town baker, a gifted fence, and innocent children are caught up in a secret struggle to control the future of the world.

Azure is a normal little girl who likes to play games in the woods around her village. But real monsters lurk in the shadows, bound by enchantment to devour one touched by a goddess.

Knowledge is a dangerous thing. That's why Ilion never asked why his unnamed client wanted the Staves of Thenta. Yet he soon finds the artifacts' value when he is left bleeding under a table by one of Tamborintin's more audacious thieves.

Alizarin is a baker with a knack for midwifery. Her ordinary existence is interrupted by the shock of her injured mother's surprise return, and then the collapse of a customer on her shop floor. She travels to the countryside thinking to escape her sorrow. But all is not as it seems in Vestra.

Gill transports us to a decaying land where crumbling temples hold forgotten truths, thieves lurk behind every corner, and the ambitious vie for the honor of predatory and cruel deities. It is the latest act in a war spanning generations. The heroes soon discover that the price of victory is measured in the blood of the innocent.
