Stone Prophet is Published!
I'm pleased to announce volume thee of Jigsaw City, titled Stone Prophet, has been published.
The Ebook released last week and print copies released today. The cover art hasn't quite made its way to Amazon, though it is for sale there.
Nicole Jacobs wants to reassemble the ancient and magical City of Kurg, but as a result of a recent battle, pieces of the city were scattered all over her world. Worse, unlike the ones scattered around the galaxy, which constantly talk to her, nagging to be whole again, they’re quiet and deactivated.As she struggles with the question of how to find them, she senses a piece of the city coming to life again and she’s drawn like a moth to the flame, to an ancient ruin built by the stone men that made the city. There, she meets a dwarf history miner, who holds the piece, which is folded up like a little coin.
More interesting, however, is an amber lens in his possession that shows glimpses of the past and future when looked through. Even more odd, it’s been whispering into the dwarf’s mind. The strange object is presented to the stone men, who know what it is: it’s a piece of the Seventh Sage, one of their people with a prophetic gift.
Nicole leads a team on a series of missions to collect the Sage in the hopes he can locate the missing pieces of Kurg. The journey is harsh and emotionally painful, because Nicole is forced to kill, not just once, but three times, leaving her distraught, because she wishes she’d found another way.
Collecting the last piece is especially difficult, forcing her to test her resolve with the life of a friend hanging in the balance.
Nicole completes the Sage, but little does she know, a great and powerful enemy lurks within his mind, an ancient and powerful witch whose powers are in a class of their own.
Will Nicole rise to the challenge and fulfill prophesy by becoming the Leader of the stone men, or will the parasitic soul that’s taken over the Sage steal her fate?
