BRYAN M. KUDERNA'S FICTION DEBUT IS A COMING-OF-AGE FANTASY NOVEL YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO PUT DOWN!
Beeker is trying to find his way in life, no longer a kid, but not yet an adult, when his single mother decides it is time for a change. He and his little brother, Dak, leave the comfort of their home in the Plains to go and live in the Mountains with their beloved Uncle Dobo, a founder of the Militia and renowned war hero. The rapidly growing population of Anoroc leaves their species, Chigidies, scrambling for sparse resources, particularly the most valuable commodity of all-- Painite. Beeker, Dak, and their generation can no longer plead ignorance to the tumult overtaking Anoroc. But, at what cost will it come?
"Essential reading for anyone wanting to increase personal wealth... Exceptionally well written, organized, and presented."
