Items related to The Deer King: Novella One
When a Deer King is born, nations tremble.
Emmaline Rain’s father is the Stoneman. His responsibility: travel into Massaporan lands and end the life of the reincarnated Massaporan deity—the Deer King—the instant he is born. But when he fails in this task, the delicate equilibrium between Emmaline’s people and the Massaporans is disturbed. It seems likely that the violence of the past will be renewed.
Emmaline’s father is soon murdered by a priest of the Bronze Titan for his shortcomings. Newly orphaned, Emmaline absconds with the Saving Stone in the hopes of finding the Deer King and completing her father’s work. But when she comes face-to-face with the Deer King, she realizes that relations between her people and the Massaporans are more complicated than she has been led to believe.
The Deer King is the first in a planned series of fantasy novellas set in Dreyland, a colonial world where the indigenous people rely on the strength of a reincarnated god to help them offset the technological superiority of the settlers.

Review:
"The world building in this story was incredibly well done. I can't recommend The Deer King highly enough to anyone who enjoys the fantasy genre." -- Long and Short Reviews
"Atmospheric and very well written" -- Ingenious Cat Reviews
"Startlingly reminiscent of a fairytale, or even a high epic fantasy, this novella certainly makes good use of its pages." -- Cats Luv Coffee Book Reviews
Praise for the Series"That's one of the things I love about this series. Both novellas so far are wonderfully woven tales that are mindful of readers' times and aren't afraid to go for big picture ideas or high fantasy concepts." -- Scott A. Waldyn, former editor-in-chief of Literary Orphans
