Full of drama, adventure, romance, sorcery and intrigue, the epic fantasy series 'Tomb of Ortheus' will introduce you to the fearsome kiell and their bone-crunching jaws, faery that morph before your eyes, daemon with their twisted features and wings of death, and harpies that will steal your soul. Wrapped about these creatures are the lives of characters you will love, hate, cry for, and fight for as you lose yourself in the path they walk between life and death.
Book One (The Cost of Peace) follows the decisions that are made as a renewed conflict overtakes the realm. As the peace Treaty begins to fall, diverse beliefs, fears, and scars fuel the factions, each of whom have their own vision for peace. The royal family is shattered - pulled apart as the Bourdha Lands are thrown into chaos. A brother desperately tries to restore order to the realm, leaving his sister, their only hope to restore the Treaty, fighting to survive in enemy terrain. Her only companion: a loyal Guard whose curse will see them both to their grave. Friends become foes, foes become friends, and the bond that drives them all is the will for peace. In their wake lies a broken Temple, a fallen crown, a dark spirit rising and an impossible hope.
