Coeptus Awakes (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780997557190)

A new day has dawned for the greatest city of men. The invaders from across the Great Sea have been destroyed or turned away, and a new king sits upon Havenstahl's throne. That new king, Ymarhon, has united all the great cities in a mighty coalition of peace Ouloos hasn't seen since the days of King Jorgon. The sun shines brightly on that great city on the hill once again.

Meanwhile, Hagen has remembered his old form and taken it upon himself to root out and destroy any stragglers of the great war who may remain hiding among the woods and dark places surrounding Havenstahl. At the same time, he is using his remembered power to rebuild and restore the hills, valleys, forests, and rolling meadows surrounding the city back to their former glory.

Events are less sunny beyond the borders of Havenstahl. Maelich's mind has returned from his psychic crack, and he must reckon with all he has done and left undone. Nearly everyone he's ever loved has died, and it was all his fault. Cialia agrees. Now that her brother is awake, everyone is aware of everything he knows. The forgotten one is remembered by all, another god for Cialia to kill. Maelich seeks to protect Raya from his sister's vengeance and prevent her from making the same mistakes as him.

While two Dragons battle for the life of a god, the greatest and most dangerous power Ouloos has ever known grows ever stronger at the edge of chaos. Geillan gleaned much from his mother during the brief moment he embraced her while burning her to ash with Dragon's Flame. Her world is a vile and wicked place filled with treachery, fear, violence, and hate. A reckoning is coming for Ouloos. Will she survive when Coeptus awakes?
