The Souls of Aredyrah is a series of fantasy novels written for readers from
young adult to adult. Set in the island world of Aredyrah, the story examines individuals and societies caught in a web of isolationism and deceit. Once united in celebration, the inhabitants of Aredyrah
are now divided. An ancient cataclysm has claimed their histories and spawned religions founded on mythologies. But when two boys from opposing cultures meet, they discover some unwelcome truths. The
beliefs they have been raised on are nothing more than lies, and should they reveal them, they risk not only their own lives, but the stability of their world.
Five books are planned:
Book One, The Fire and the Light, official publication date October 1, 2006.
Dayn and Ruairi, two boys from very different cultures, discover they are bound to
each other not only by blood, but by the prophecy that will either draw their world into enlightenment, or plunge it into further darkness.
Book Two, The Search for the Unnamed One, publication date August 2007
The saga continues as Dayn and Reiv (Ruairi) face the prophecy that tries to define
them and a regime that seeks to destroy them.
Book Three, The Taking of the Dawn, 2008
Dayn and Reiv face more turmoil as the truth about their world threatens those in power, and the bringers of that
truth are named as heretics.
Book Four (currently untitled), 2009
The next generation of characters are surprised to learn that they, too, have roles in saving their world, a world
on the brink of geological destruction.
Book Five (currently untitled), 2010
This prequel explores the ancient cataclysm that plunged Aredyrah into chaos, and the characters that led its
cultures into isolationism.
