On the eve of her consecration, a young priestess-in-training must keep vigil in the ruins of an ancient temple.
She soon discovers she will serve a darker, more terrifying purpose …
Bewitched at a young age by all things to do with swords and magic, Canadian fantasy author Timothy J. R. Rains spent his youth slaughtering Minotaurs in the misty woods of rural Nova Scotia.
He studied cartography at the Centre of Geographic Sciences and has a degree in theology from Briercrest College. And when he isn’t caught up in another dimension, he’s usually out in the middle of some cold river with a cigar in his teeth and a fishing rod in his hands.
He lives with his wife and young son and daughter in Riverview, New Brunswick.
