Description
"It is my people who suffer at the hand of the Iyes! My people! So when we hear the Warriors have arrived and are preparing for battle against us, what do we do? What do I do? I fight! I fight to save my people!" - The Ensi, leader of the Ka
Hounded by adherents of Kaos, god of the Dark, the reluctant Warriors strive to protect the Iyes tribe, while desperately seeking truths within the shadows of the harsh land into which they've been thrust. Who truly are the Ka, these ancient enemies of the Iyes? Where is the Kade, the supposed source of the enemy's power? And the Geddon, the Land's Armageddon - what is this ultimate threat hanging over them, over all Life in the Continuum?
In seeking answers, the words of the god of the Light, IY, haunt them. "Fighters on the battlefield will not win this war." The Warriors realise they must engage with both the power of the Land, the A'ven, and with the unpredictable allies of IY, the daemons. And they must learn to co-exist with the soul of an ancient Warrior beside them. And for those left in another age, who also see the rising of the Dark? How can they help their friends prevent the unfolding chaos? Maybe with the aid of a traitor?
Deception is the second part of the Warriors of the Continuum Trilogy, and tells of a great deception, one hiding secrets in plain sight. It seems the Story of the Iyes does not tell all. No, a game is being played ... but by whom, and why?
About the Author
Roger P. Heath is a life-long geologist and debut author whose favourite film is It's a Wonderful Life, and whose bookshelves include Elif Shafak's There are Rivers in the Sky, Steven Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen, and Roddy Doyle's Barrytown Trilogy.
The peculiar workings of his mind once threw out a phrase: No one knows but I, who wrote this here and why. He captured the thought, then laid the journal aside. Many sun-cycles later, he found those dust-laden notes and decided to find out what those words meant. This led him to Lanky, Jessica, and Beth. And Naga and the Iyes. And Shadow and the Ka. And ... Well, to the tale of the Warriors of the Continuum, a tale of unprepared, yet spirited characters just trying to do the right thing.
His trilogy of Arrival, Deception, and Life will published in 2025.
