Roots of Creation

In a world bursting with magic, Jak’s ill-chosen powers seem worthless. When she needed them most, her enchantments were nothing compared to the horde of demons that raided her village and murdered her father. Determined to fulfill his dying wish and prove her worth, she sets off on a desperate quest to find her long-lost mother. Knowing she wouldn’t last a day alone in the dangerous wilds, she joins a roving band of warriors and throws her full weight into training under the tutelage of a young man who saved her life during the demon attack.

Magic in the air. Demons on the hunt. To save the kingdom, one girl must uncover her hidden abilities. Jak is finally doing what she loves, learning the secrets of magic. But when the queen summons her to meet in private, she discovers that not everything in Skyecliff is as it seems. Now she must find a way to keep to her studies and combat a growing threat within the city itself.

After leaving Skyecliff, Jak finds herself trapped in the endless caverns of Mt. Harafast. And she is not alone. More Fae find themselves enslaved by the misguided Watchers, and their leader is more powerful than anything Jak has seen before. She must find a way to liberate the innocent captives and escape with her life, but her enemy is more than a match for her.

A storm comes, with demon faces. Jak has made it this far, escaping the clutches of the monster, Cain, and reuniting with her friends and the Fae, but not without cost. Now an army waits to destroy them as the enemies of the Fae increase in number. Jak must do all she can to protect them, but she may not be strong enough to defeat the queen's army alone. A special council of the Fae and human armies has come together to decide what to do next. But even when they stand on the precipice of a potential peace, the emergence of a new, destructive Fae threatens to tear it all apart.

As she is pursued deeper into the mountains, Jak must face her own inner demons. Jak is on the run. After the mysterious reappearance of her friend, Marek, she must decide whether to stay with the body of her army, or go off in search of the illusive second Pillar of Eternity. But she must decide fast. Cain is on his way, and his demons pursue her. And no one knows whether they should trust Jak's childhood friend, whom they had long presumed to be dead.

Powerless. Abandoned. Without hope. After her friend betrayed her and left her to die on a frozen, unfinished magical world, Jak must survive. Trapped on the frozen planet of Illadar, she must unlearn all she knows about magic and leadership, and replace it with pure instinct to keep living. Not only does the barren wasteland threaten to freeze her and her armies to death, not only is there no way to find food, not only are scouts disappearing mysteriously, but there's only one cave and seven thousand people to house. Tensions are about to rise.

Thrust behind enemy lines, powerless and exposed. Jak and her companions have landed in Tradehall, now the seat of the enemy's power. They have one goal, to retrieve the Pillars of Eternity, or all will be lost. The Earth is not the only world at stake, but so too is the entirely new planet of Illadar. Together with a band of rebels hiding within the city, Jak must do what she can to make the impossible a reality, but what can she do when she's literally powerless?

Before Jak became a hero, a horrible secret surrounded her birth. Witness the beginning of that secret as we follow her father while he searches for his wife, and finds more than he could possibly imagine.
