The forest hides a relic in its roots and provokes a perilous quest.
When a shadowy forest summons her in dreams, Ceera Kestlyn is severely disturbed. As a scribe in Semadon’s strict society, her job is to obey and serve, not have strange reveries that could ruin her reputation. But when three men go missing in a remote wood, no longer can she deny that fate is calling. She risks it all to find out why.
Leaders allow her to accompany Dassius Rucien, a member of the Sci-Defense team, to seek counsel from the Archaics. But these keepers of nature’s secrets—who can harness the power of the elements—offer help that is dangerous to obtain. Amid these harrowing encounters Ceera’s dreams intensify, revealing that the forest hides a relic in its roots—an object that could explain her dreams and thus prove her credibility to Semadon’s leaders. Yet as the forest beckons, it also seems intent on destroying her, for entering the woods could leave her mind as twisted as the trees.
Immortal Roots is a futuristic eco-fantasy adventure with a large cast of characters whose clashing politics and competing ambitions all revolve around one shocking truth…
There’s more to this forest than just the trees.
