If you had to start over, could you let love show you the way?
A desperate wizard accidentally pulls literature professor Willa Freedlund into a parallel world of magic, monsters, and mercurial gods. When she learns Hern is in danger, her storytelling convinces the witch Naomi to start a grand adventure to save the planet. Willa’s understanding of mythology helps her fit in, but it is her experience with abuse that leads her on a quest to free an enslaved goddess and restore the balance of magic that is essential for her adopted home to survive. As Naomi helps Willa to heal, Willa learns to heal her new world.
The sequel "Sins of the Father" is completed and in edits. Follow for more news on production and release date.
Willa and Naomi must unravel the mystery of a long dead god before a race of giants destroys the cities of Hern. Dark secrets are unveiled, both about Hern’s legacy and Willa’s past. Willa’s lingering resentment for her father leads her to disastrous assumptions that threaten the balance of magical power. Travelling across the continent and all the way to the underworld, can Naomi help Willa find the forgiveness she needs to break a generational cycle of godly cruelty?
