Stick (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780996594257)

"A harrowing account of survival, loss, and cultural erasure." -The BookLife Prize

For one hundred and fifty years he has kept silent.

Now, as two aging friends near the end of their lives and the last remnants of an ancient world begin to fade, Stick finally tells the story he has spent a lifetime trying to forget.

It begins in Dorveth, one of the legendary Pillar Cities, where a young Terralin grows up surrounded by family, loyal friends, and traditions that have endured for centuries. But beyond the safety of his home, unsettling rumors begin to spread. A distant city has fallen. Travelers vanish without explanation. Ancient certainties begin to crumble.

What follows is the story of a people on the brink of extinction, friendships tested by impossible choices, and one Terralin whose life is forever changed by the day his world fell apart.

Rich with mystery and wonder, Stick is an epic fantasy about loss, courage, friendship, and the stories that survive when everything else is gone.
