I am posting this for a good friend in the Indie World, Katy Huth Jones. If you would like some good books that will lift your spirits, you should give the Mercy's Prince a try.
Cover
reveal for MERCY'S GIFT, Book Two in the fantasy series He Who Finds Mercy by
Katy Huth Jones:
Peace is fragile.
Gifts have limits.
While Prince Valerian
adjusts to marriage as well as his new title, conspiracy brews in the south
among disgruntled lords who wish to separate from the north. The situation is
made even more volatile by a charismatic rebel leader whose guerilla tactics
are swift and brutal.
The clandestine
efforts of a witch hired by one of the lords render Valerian's gift of Sight
ineffective, and Merry's Healing gift is sorely tested.
It has become
dangerous for a northerner living in the south, and if the gifted young royals
fail to stop the growing rebellion, evil will reign in Levathia.
The story
begins in Book One, MERCY'S PRINCE:
A heart of peace in a time of war
As second son of the King of
Levathia, seventeen-year-old Valerian desires the quiet life of a scholarly
monk. But when he fails to save his older brother in battle, Valerian must
instead become crown prince.
While a traitorous knight schemes
against him, Valerian meets Mercy, a pacifist Healer with whom he can speak
mind-to-mind like the great dragons. Their bond emboldens Valerian to seek out
the legendary dragons and ask for their help against the monsters who killed
his brother.
Can Valerian survive the
traitor’s assassins long enough to find the dragons? And if he does, can he
convince them to lay aside their hatred of humans and help him save the land
from destruction?
