Mari

di Regina Clarke (Autore)

Crossing Paths Press, 2020

For a thousand years in the land of Chaimara, all females have been born with the right to be Keepers of their world. But for Mari in the village of Chadrons, this power remains dormant. Until a mysterious Storyteller emerges from the desert, giving her a fragment of the ancient Ilmat-Mor and setting her on a dangerous journey to reach the mountains of Dromgorden. At first her guardian Marta goes with her, warning Mari her life is in peril from the armies of the Joraghi, who are searching for her because their commander Yarok-Mas is obsessed with the Ilmat-Mor and its absolute power and the fragment of it now in Mari's keeping. Dreams haunt her of flames rising up from an abyss. A vision comes to her of riding like the wind on horseback with her long-lost brother Liam and a hundred warriors as red clouds of explosions fill the night sky. Pressing forward through the unfamiliar world of Chaimara after Marta leaves her, Mari faces alone the unknown, for time and place shift without warning. People cross her path, some intense and frightening, some comic, others strange, all of them with a hidden purpose and message for her. And there come the Shapeshifters, who lurk in the shadows, ready to betray her, knowing the Joraghi will pay a good price for their knowledge. To her great joy, Mari encounters a small group of rebels when she reaches a sanctuary in the Dromgorden mountains and finds Liam and the brave poet-warrior Starfayl. She joins forces with them when she discovers they intend to rescue her mother from Yarok-Mas and retrieve the other half of the Ilmat-Mor. As she fights for the fate of her world, Mari begins to understand the true power of the Storyteller's gift and of the destiny that is now her own to wield. If you enjoy epic fantasy adventures filled with magic, mystery, and high stakes, then you won't want to miss "MARI."
