This daring quest pits duty against desire. With Taeyon's engagement to another looming and deadly challenges threatening their every step, the quest transforms into a trial of love, loyalty, and sacrifice.

About J.R. Barton
Raised in the snowy woodlands of Alaska and Montana, Jared Ronald Barton grew up in the quiet solitude that fosters serious writers. He began writing in elementary school, copying the storylines from his favorite computer games and reading ravenously from a wide variety of fantasy and science fiction novels. Scribbling often late at night by candlelight, Jared spent his childhood and teenage years developing his craft and love of writing, completing and self-publishing his first novel-length work, The Lady of Frostvale, as a fun high school project. After graduating, he moved to Portland, OR to pursue a degree in elementary education and graduated from Concordia University with a BA. After graduating, he moved to Vacaville, CA to be closer to family.
In addition to his writing, Jared tutors a diverse range of students at the elementary, high school, and college levels, sharing his passion for knowledge, learning, and, of course, great books.
