The Hearts of Gods and Men

"A rich, adventurous fantasy with compelling characters and lots of heart!" - Andrea Benson, Quirky Pen Editing

"Heartfelt, immersive, and beautiful." - A. Ortiz Editing.

Ren, once the great king, now a magic-wielding drunk, spent the past fourteen years drowning in the grief of his wife's death. Three weeks ago, an army of cultists kidnapped his son and daughter; today, he'll summon the dormant war demon within and kill whoever stands in his way to get them back. If only he could first conquer his thirst for ale and make amends with his long-neglected children--then perhaps redemption could be within reach.

Telara, Ren's teenage daughter, albeit witty and nature loving, struggles with crippling anxiety and haunting visions of her lonely past. When an uncontrollable power awakens within, she races across the peculiar world of Kynes to uncover the secrets of her curse before she kills...again.

Joined by the KingsCore, the once-famous king's guard, Ren and Telara navigate their complicated bond on a path of destiny to save Ren's son, Dalen--The prophesized prince destined to destroy the world from scheming gods. Or so they believe, for the Gods wrote the prophecy, and the Gods lie.
