The Spiral Wakes : Book 1 of A Wounded Land
Oaths have broken. The Spiral has cracked. The last defenders must choose whether to stand together—or be swallowed by silence.
In the mountain realm of the Valley in the Clouds, the heir Elrich struggles to rally a shattered people. Kael, a mystic haunted by visions, seeks truths buried in forgotten ruins. And Asher, a boy with impossible memories, may hold the key to the lost flame of the Oath-Bound.
Enemies rise from every border—the warlord Ardain in his shadowed forests, iron-handed Cormac in the east, and traitors hidden within the ranks themselves. To face them, warriors old and young swear into the Shield-Bound, a fragile brotherhood forged from ruin.
Across battlefields, haunted passes, and buried sanctuaries, hope flickers. The Spiral turns again.
The Spiral Wakes launches an epic fantasy saga of broken vows, rising shadows, and the fragile courage of those who refuse to fall.
