Experience the thrill of this classic-style coming of age epic fantasy.
Amazon Reviewer
"Epic. Simply epic."
“The tears of Hatsunae fell in glistening streams across the lands she and her lover forged. With every drop, her purpose infused the Highlands with her essence, safeguarding it for a time from the withering that was beyond her powers to fully prevent."
"Some claim a few of those tears were born from more than just the watery magic of Hatsunae alone. For her truest tears, they said, were infused with the love of the stone lord’s heart and fell in the likeness of both stone and water as sapphires, hard as earth and blue as the deepest oceans.”
-Durn (Rise of Tears)
Amazon Reviewer
"This is a wonderful start to a limitless epic fantasy adventure, to which the likes of Robert Jordan, David Eddings and J. R. R. Tolkien themselves, and their fans, would only enjoy on their shelves."

Rise of Tears - Book 1
The world of Elerea is dying, and Asahn is the only one who can save it. At least, that’s the tale Old Durn, the tribe storyteller, was weaving this time. It seemed absurd at first, but...
A strange new religion is hunting the Kahn Shogal, and the secret to why may reside in the clouded history of Asahn’s people. The mighty Highlands warriors have no choice but to flee into the wilderness of their homeland, but it has become a harsh and unforgiving place as the world withers.
While the Kahn Shogal face danger on every side, their great chieftain is too consumed by pride and tradition to lead them. Only Asahn, heir to the Kah Hrah, has the authority to confront his father in his missteps. But for a son who always looked up to his father, such betrayal will not come easily.
With every step, Asahn will confront new dangers to his people and his world. And with every step, he will drive himself, against all odds, to become the person Old Durn swears he can be, their only salvation.

Rise of Tears - Book 1
The gift of the Aiune Kah granted the ability to sense the divine. But to Asahn, the mark of his lineage had proven to be nothing but a curse.
Because of their ancestry, Asahn’s people were now hunted by the Order of Light, yet to what end, no one could say. The gods of Elerea had been gone for a thousand years, and their essence had faded from the dying land. Yet the Order preaches of a Rebirth, and their priests wield magic like the gods of old, a magic that Asahn can sense.
Asahn must uncover the Order’s secrets and the sinister purpose behind their hunt for the Kahn Shogal before it’s too late. His only hope for answers may reside in the Stonelord capital of Vulgotha Tor, but the ancient city stands behind enemy lines, and the Stonelords and Kahn Shogal hold an age-old enmity.
Follow the second part of Asahn’s journey as he contends with long-hidden family secrets and the divine echoes of Elerea’s ancient past. A choice stands before him. Should he seek and embrace the Greatness Lost, or should the power of the gods remain lost to history forever?
Either way, it can only end in a Fall of Tears.

Glimpse the adventure with this short story prequel.
For a Kahn Shogal, the rite of manhood is a profound life event, though one every boy in the tribe experiences. To prove his right to this new adult status, a boy of age must venture alone into the harsh wilderness and return with proof of his conquest.
For Asahn, heir to his people’s chieftain, this ritual is anything but commonplace. His successes and failures are viewed with a more critical eye, and any trophy he returns with must be worthy of the future leader of the tribe.
Asahn planned for this day, however, and his sights are set on the perfect trophy to prove his worth as a man and son of the Kah Hrah. But a plan only gets you so far.
Asahn’s rite of manhood will lead him into a struggle of life and death and a question of his very honor.
Little does he know this is only the first of many trials to come.
