About the Book
In the aftermath of the Tournament of Sacred Swords, Keras and his companions are injured, exhausted, and on the run. After being pushed to their limits in the battle against Akadi, a malevolent demigod from another world, they’re pursued by numerous enemies with their own agendas.
The greatest of these is Raizo, the Wielder of Cloudcutter, often believed to be the most powerful of the Six Sacred Swords. One of the leaders of the dragon-eating Tails of Orochi, Raizo is the swordsman who killed Reika’s father when she was a young girl. And while she desperately wishes to pursue her vengeance, she is more than aware that their wounded and beleaguered band is in no condition to face him.
Seeking power and refuge, Keras delves into a place where few others dare to tread. One where, if he’s brave and lucky, he might earn a piece of Flowbreaker, the shattered Sacred Sword of Water. A crystal shrine with power like no other, where he will face the shadows of a world long destroyed—
And find a fragment of his own past, once shattered like glass.
