In Wake of the Dead
(2024)(The fifth book in the Shadow in the Storm series)
A novel by Graeme K Talboys
Jeniche of Antar
Once a shadow in the storm, now the daughter of lightning.
The Occassan civil war was over and the Order crushed, freeing the world of their oppression. But peace eluded Jeniche. All she really wanted was a warm, quiet place where no one knew her and where she, too, could be free - free of her ghosts and her guilt. But she also wanted to know what had driven the events that had driven her from her adopted home and taken the lives of friends and loved ones. That meant the longed for quiet library and observatory where she could study the stars would have to remain a dream.
She hoped that answers she wanted might be found with the Pilgrims in the fabled land of Ekador. What she did discover, during her search, was that you cannot outrun your troubles and that answers not only present themselves in unexpected places but also in unexpected and often perilous ways.
Genre: Fantasy
