Seed of War (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781950230068)

Lies, suspicion, and a desperate trek.

Saving the world from feuding gods made Ludik miss his wedding once. Nothing will keep the jaguar from marrying his beloved this time.

...Except maybe a dead body.

The accidental death of a trespasser threatens retribution to his village. In a mad race to keep a misguided witness from sowing deadly lies, Ludik must follow the trail through hostile territory and turn a fierce wolf into an ally.

But another death may shake their tenuous accord, and even with the help of his outkindred friends--a gilled translator, a fire mage, and the winged messenger of the Gods-- Ludik might not be able to prevent war or escape his own execution.

Danger lurks among the trees, and even if he solves the mystery, the cost might break his heart.

Seed of War is a fantasy mystery that ponders justice, mercy, and vital choices when everything is at stake. It is the second book in the Unexpected Heroes series of clean YA secondary world fantasy and is best read in order for the most enjoyment.
