The Ancestral Odyssey: Rise of the Black Doves - Part Two (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781999784423)

The Star Callers have left New Xiondel City. Having learned a way to track Isolde, Alessa leads her sisters through Krondathian territory and beyond, but something is wrong; their path is littered with strange occurrences and peculiar findings which can only spell uncertainty.

The road was long, but it is far from over. Deacon sides with Nielata to combat the unrest on Xiondel's streets; however, it will take more than a bold strategy and courage to bring about the justice the city deserves; it may require the assistance of an ancient shell.

Denzel and Jun continue their hunt for undeniable proof that will expose and incarcerate Professor Atheriax. Nevertheless, the more they uncover, the more disturbing his experiments become.

At the mercy of the storm, the Firehands secure the hexagon, making the essential repairs and preparations before they breach the silo to rescue the students and to learn the origin of the lethal infestation.

Draygo continues his search for Chloe Augustien, also known as the elusive Silken Spirit, who was last seen on the borders of Tthenadawn Forest. Should contact be made, Draygo is to learn more about the Blood Angel, Saphuries, uncover a potential weakness and perhaps convince Chloe to rejoin the Dark Rogue crusade.

The Ancestral Odyssey: Rise of the Black Doves is the sequel to The Utopian Dream. Readers will return to Equis and visit a variety of remarkable and nightmarish lands. Rise unifies the genres of epic and horror, taking the series to a unique place. The Ancestral Odyssey is far from over, promising the reader a new cast to further explore and unravel the mystery at this Odyssey's core. Amidst this storm of an epic comes a myriad of plots, a deeper understanding of Glyph magic, the arrival of another race and the unveiling of a terrifying deity. Episode Two could very well be the darkest in the series, daring to challenge readers with controversial story arcs, uncomfortable ideas, and present situations some are not prepared for or expecting.

The Dream is Over. A Nightmare Surfaces. Their Rise is Inevitable.
