So, last year I read an amazing story about Palon and her dragon Windward. One of the small elements in the story highlighted Palon’s life before she became a dragon rider, the after-effects she still bears, and even small hints about a sibling or two she left behind.
So you can imagine my delight when I read an early draft of S. Kaeth’s new story, Between Starfalls, where the hinted siblings—Kaemada and Taunos—take the spotlight. This story is amazing (future review coming) and I honestly can’t wait for readers to meet these gorgeous characters and the beautiful/destructive world of the Kamalti.
Never leave the path.
It’s sacred law, punishable by exile.
When her son goes missing in the perilous mountains, Kaemada defies the law to search for him. She enlists the help of her hero brother, a priestess berserker, and a fire-wielding friend.
But the law exists for a reason.
When the search party is captured by the mythical Kamalti, they learn that Kaemada’s son was sent to an ancient prison city. As they battle for freedom, they discover a horrible truth that will change the future of both races forever.
With their world in upheaval, Kaemada must find a way to peace if she’s to save her son—but tensions between the two races are leading to war.
And now without further ado, the gorgeous cover for Between Starfalls:
For all you readers and book bloggers out there, here’s some information about the book. Pre-order links are coming soon, but you can follow S. Kaeth on Goodreads and be sure to add it to your shelf. This amazing adventure into the world off the lawful path hits shelves March 27th, 2020!
She was raised in the gorgeous Driftless area of the Midwest United States on a steady diet of Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, mythology, legends of King Arthur, superheroes, and Doctor Who. As a child, she told stories constantly to family and friends, and she wrote some of the worst fan fiction and short stories that no one will ever get to see.
As S got older, she was inspired a great deal by Andre Norton’s Janus novels, the Foundation series, the Ender’s Game series, Wheel of Time, Ursula K LeGuin, and Ringworld. With a friend, she designed a new role-playing system with its own class system, lore, and mechanics, along with a starter world to set it in. These form the basic underpinnings to the magic system of her writing today.
She’s an avid reader, has been serious about honing her craft for about ten years, now. She finds writing necessary; it’s an integral part of who she is. Creative expression in some way helps her to get through the dark times and celebrate the bright times, making sense of the world and dealing with life in general. S has always been, and always will be, a storyteller.
