For centuries the elves of Armena have remained safe inside their forest of solitude, but time has finally caught up with them. The humans of Kentar, the forces of the Talon Thieves Guild, and the dark elves of the Underworld are advancing. Not content with the power he has accumulated over his four hundred year life span, the Guildmaster will pay any price to carve out a kingdom of his own. If allying himself with the dark elves and starting a war between the elves of Armena and the humans of Kentar is what he has to do, then so be it.

In the first volume of A Prayer for Peace, the elven brothers achieved a great victory and proved themselves worthy of their father’s legacy, but their trial is just beginning. In the second book of this series the brothers face the men who killed their father, bring an abusive lord to justice, destroy a fortress, and answer the call of a dragon who was ancient when the first elves came to Tellus. They will find the First Heir, witness more than one miracle, face death itself to save a friend, and defy the will of the heavens. The brothers grow stronger with each passing day, but is it the greatness in their blood that propels them forward, or are the gods behind the curtain pulling the strings?

Always in the brothers’ shadow is the thief, the moving hand of the Talon Guild, who above all desires power. Where will his loyalties ultimately lie – with his guild, heritage, or faith?

This is a novel where mortals yearn for the favor of the divine and are nearly always left unsatisfied, wondering if the gods despise them.

“A good, worthy sequel to the first book. There is plenty of action, intrigue, death, undeath, and much much more. [Spoiler alert] Yes, the gods do despise us…” 5 star review
