The Phoenix of Redd, Volume I: Rienspel
Coming this Halloween!
"Rien
Sucat wiles his days away, bored-stiff in his small backwoods village. But soon
gets more than he bargained for after he befriends a magical Phoenix, accidentally
witnesses a secret necromantic ritual, and comes face to face with a league of
racist, knife-wielding assassins out for his blood. Travel with Rien as he and
the Phoenix journey from the unassuming Rillian village of Nyrgen through the
enchanting depths of the Great Wood where the unquiet dead lurk, to the high
north country of Firehall - elusive sanctuary of the Elves. Launch into an epic
quest with consequences farther reaching than Rien could ever possibly imagine."
"Rienspel
is about heart. It is about family and about how the power of love played out
in everyday life often carries lasting consequences. Rien’s tale transcends the
dim shadows of our own world by revealing the lingering power we all carry
through how we live and treat others. It is a tale about the Story we all
reside in which readers both young and young-at-heart will find compelling. As
C.S. Lewis once penned for his colleague and friend J.R.R. Tolkien, so it is
with Rienspel, ‘here are beauties which pierce like swords or burn like cold
iron. Here is a story which will break your heart”… and re-forge it anew in
Phoenix-fire."
