Can broken souls save a dying city?

In the ancient desert town of Alagor, nobody is more lost and broken than Banar, the lame beggar, unless it’s Anna, the royal slave, or Alandro, the wounded baker, or even Malia, the lonely noble daughter. When TrueGod weaves their lives together, leading them to unexpected friendships and even love, he creates alliances that could also save the city from the devastating secret plans of a power-seeking magistrate. The stakes are high, for unless these damaged souls can step out of their ordinary roles and do things they would never dare alone, lives all across Alagor could be lost, including their own.

Enter Balia, a world not so different from our own. Explore lush landscapes and rich cultures as Balia’s creator, TrueGod, moves through many times and places to find lost and broken people to call his own. Fantasy with a Christian worldview.
