Unlikely Prophet: History of the Crossing (Sword's Edge Chronicles)

Avadhron, a brave and skeptical leader, must face the harsh reality of their dying world.

Some have given in to despair and others turn to violence, but when a long-dormant portal suddenly activates, a glimmer of hope appears in the form of an alien offering a new chance at life on a distant planet.

As Avadhron's secret dreams become a foretelling of a new beginning, he must lead his people into the unknown and learn to adapt in the wilderness of this new world.

But with survival comes a price, and Avadhron must make difficult choices that will test his loyalty and courage.

L.S. King worked as a submissions editor and a copy editor on several science fiction and fantasy magazines, authored a column for new writers, and was a founding editor of the online magazine, Ray Gun Revival, now on hiatus. She does local writing workshops and currently hosts a fiction writing support group online.

Her short stories have been included in two anthologies of the best short stories and poetry from Double-Edged Publishing, and also in Inkd Publishing's Hidden Villains. Various online magazines have published her stories including Deep Magic, The Sword Review, Dragons, Knights & Angels, Digital Dragon Magazine, and Residential Aliens. The fact that several of the publications which have released her stories are now defunct has nothing to do with her. Honest.
