A hope sits dormant in her care,

—seed to stave off cold

But on fell wind there blows a wrath,

A Deathless Beast,

brings cursed bonds of old.

Katiam Borreau—Paladame of the Rose, physician, Follower of the Aspect of Dignity—has only ever wanted a choice in her life. But the responsibilities placed upon her, along with the discovery and awakening of a mysterious, seemingly ageless seed pod, and she must decide whether she is to put her desires aside, for within that seed lies hope, and a healing balm the world of Kallattai truly needs.

But a dark figure, one who has been cursed by the gods by his own choices harasses the company of Paladames, Paladins, and the Black Sentinels escorts to the monks of Judgment. He brings in his wake wrath, winged fury, and rage.

Seed of Hope is Book Three in the sprawling Epic Fantasy series the Kallattian Cycle by Andrew D Meredith — a story of gods, their chosen champions, and dark figures bent on freeing the mortal realms from a fate established by greater beings.

All would be heroes must give their lives,

or made sample of folly.

Example to those who’ve yet still to come,

Through doomed cycle,

Or fated legacy
