Ruins of Change

The Sword.

Kina Ukiel enjoys a life that few would dare to brave. She's found her home amidst crumbling ruins, delving into their mysteries with little more than stories for guidance. Protected by mercenaries and tasked only with finding lost treasures, Kina has begun exploring the truths lost to history.

Her latest adventure, however, turns up a strange sword which has been long lost since the time of Gods and Magic - an event in which the gods themselves waged war upon each other. A sword of such power is no small treasure and Kina finds herself contending with her former allies, an angered duke and the power of the gods themselves.

With Kina's world rapidly changing, she's forced to face not only the dangers that she has returned to the world, but perhaps rediscover who she is.

Born on a Groundhog Day a few decades ago, and raised with repeated viewings of the original Star Wars movies, the author developed a taste for fantastical stories and worlds. He had a healthy appetite for science fiction stories which soon led to other genres and a large collection of paperbacks on the shelf.His day job remains a more monotonous world of numbers, paper and procedures but it has allowed the author to travel through many different countries and cultures including Chile, Australia and into the Arctic Circle for extended periods of time.When not travelling, the author makes his home in southern Ontario, Canada, where he lives happily with his wife and daughter. He spends much of his free time studying vintage aircraft and playing tabletop games.
