Ari Heinze's Books (Note: Ari is much more professional in his approach, so the following books are already published, with only teaser chapters posted here. His own website is hopewriter.com) Bright against the Storm In Ilohan’s own eyes he is the weakest of the knights of Karolan, slow to perceive the danger threatening the realm. Aging King Thomas sends him on a mysterious quest that seems of small importance. But the king knows the mission's true purpose, and has staked much on Ilohan's strength and understanding – more than the young knight could possibly guess. In a world where most profess the religion taught in the Books of the Travelers, a brave young blacksmith does not. Jonathan has invented his own faith – and determined to hold it to the death. Ilohan, wholly committed himself to the religion of the Travelers, nonetheless chooses Jonathan to accompany him on his quest. Will Jonathan’s faith – or any faith – sustain him on the dark road ahead? Never doubting his own strength or fidelity, Jonathan has made far-reaching promises to the lovely shepherdess he left behind in Glen Carrah. Will he be able to keep them? What will become of her – or him – if he does not? Could these simple promises one day decide the fate of nations? The quest at first seemed almost disappointingly simple: go to Lake Luciyr, search the surrounding area for relics of an old assassination, and then continue on to Harevan. However, Ilohan and Jonathan soon have reason to wonder if they will even live to reach Luciyr. Assuming they do reach it, what if their search turns up nothing? How long should they spend futilely scouring the shores? Beyond Luciyr lies a high, unfrequented pass – and after that, the great desert of the south. The isolated village of Harevan lies at least a week’s ride across the desert – though travelers can hug the mountains in the hope of finding occassional water. But what is waiting for Ilohan and Jonathan at Harevan? As they travel, rumors come to them of a hidden valley in the mountains above Harevan. The valley has many names: Ceramir, the Cloth of Joy, the Valley of the Undismayed, Brightshadow... What is it, and who are the Children of Ceramir? Ashes of our Joy As Ashes of Our Joy, Book Two in The Epic of Karolan, begins, Sir Ilohan has journeyed to remote Ceramir and has proven to be a true Knight of Karolan in every way. Ilohan tries to come to terms with the realization of his own significance, and to sort through his feelings for Veril, a lovely daughter of Ceramir whom he met under unfortunate circumstances -- all this while recovering from a serious illness. Ilohan's faithful companion, the powerful blacksmith Jonathan, prepares to accompany his friend wherever he may journey next -- while longing to be reunited with beautiful Naomi, the shepherdess of Glen Carrah to whom he has pledged undying love. On the other side of the mountains, King Thomas rejoices in the good news from Ceramir while at the same time preparing for a brutal war with King Fingar of Norkath, who is determined to make a bid for the throne of Karolan. All plans are changed when the great eagle Skykag soars into Ceramir carrying terrible news: King Thomas has suddenly died, and Fingar's invasion can be expected within days. Princess Eleanor, and old King Thomas himself, had laid all their plans assuming that Ilohan would be in Karolan when invasion came -- that he would lead the army and inspire the men to hope. Now a long and dangerous journey separates the knight from the embattled realm he swore to serve. There is nothing Ilohan can do to get back to Karolan in time... or is there? Will Ilohan and Jonathan attempt a journey that has been known for centuries to be impossible? If they ever return to Karolan, what will they find there? With Fingar's invasion inevitable, and evidence growing of treachery within Karolan itself, what chance do Jonathan and Naomi have of keeping the far-reaching promises they made to one another long ago? |
