A recovery mission turns sour and becomes a journey of deception, carnage and betrayal.
A BookLife Review Editor's Pick for "truly outstanding quality."
"The follow-up to Out of the Grey, Sprague's accomplished first entry in the SPARX Luminary series, again combines swords and high-tech science fiction as the remnants of the human race on a disaster-ravaged world again venture into unspeakable danger... fashioning a quest in the classical mode, mixing traditions and tropes like a DJ but always with a fresh spin" -BookLife Reviews Editor's Pick
"The dangers of Whisperwood prove peculiar, memorable, and even funny... In the end, this wild country is well stocked with enticing developments and not just genre clichés." -Kirkus Reviews
"Like its predecessor, Reforged is distinguished by its author's inventive zeal... This memorable fantasy sequel embraces and challenges the expectations of lovers of the genre." -BookLife Reviews Editor's Pick
¿"A QUEST IN AN UNFORGIVING WILDERNESS... THE INTRIGUE NEVER WAVERS." -Kirkus Reviews
A striker prototype has been torn from the hands of its young wielder and cast into a ripple of space. The consequences could be devastating. Amot, the scout who lost the powerful sword through his own reckless behavior, needs to redeem himself and restore the honor of his Kith brotherhood.
Queensmen of the Royal Quarter, alongside Kith rangers, mobilize the all-female Order Valkyrie and partake in a recovery mission. Together they must traverse a dangerous territory occupied by Wulvers and wicked spirits, all the while keeping the Kingdom of Harrow in check. But the mission goes awry. The party is scattered, the weapon altered by a mystical beast of the forest, and the blade's powers bent to a greater purpose. Amot's path turns to one of deception, carnage and betrayal. A path from which he may never return.
