High adventure on alien seas! In this follow-up to 'Edomia: A Fantasy Adventure, ' author J.M. Kind takes readers on a new journey across the deep and often-troubled waters of imagination.

It has been nearly two-hundred Earth years since the mad monk, Encurionicus, stumbled through the quantum portal between Earth and the world of Edomia. Now, the twisted, militant, hyper-misogynistic faith of the Arethian threatens to usher in a new Dark Age, supplanting the advanced cultural, scientific, and political order of Taugwadeth and her neighbors by fiery conquest, mass murder, and conversion at the point of a sword.

The story unfolds through the eyes of Afina, a young woman burdened with a dangerous secret. After the ruthlessly ambitious Serpent Prince and his rapacious retainers invade the only home Afina has ever known-the ancient cloister on the isolated Island of Forgotten Women-the reluctant heroine is tasked with the guardianship of the prince's unborn daughter. Seven years later, when a fanatical order of holy inquisitors invade the island again, Afina must fight to protect the child's true identity even as she and her companions are taken captive aboard a ship bound for the slave markets of Jorn Gthang far to the north. Stolen again during a daring raid, Afina meets beautiful, devious pirate queen, Ava-Zra and her colorful crew. But when the captain's plans for the young woman become clear, Afina's troubles-and her adventures-have only just begun! Will Afina become a pawn in Ava-Zra's dangerous game of seduction and shifting alliances, or will the young woman unwittingly fall in with the very people who would enslave her once again?

'Children of Edomia' is a heroinic coming of age tale, a classic adventure story of survival and revenge, romance and political intrigue, a search for the meaning of freedom, friendship, and family in a darkly troubled world.
