Fallen Heroes (Rise of Faiden, #2)

Kingdom of Faiden. In all that time, none challenged him who had any hope of defeating his army of corrupted sorcerers or the darkness that possessed them. Now, the Oracle has set in motion events to bring war to Faiden and to rouse the dormant high kingdom. Princess Vera has awakened from her mystical slumber, having narrowly survived Sayron's wrath. Is she the heir Faiden has been waiting to claim, and can this newest generation of leaders rise above the devastating losses in their past to become the heroes their world desperately needs?
Rise of Faiden is a six-novel epic fantasy series by Kimber Grey that introduces Midia, a vast and magical world that is besieged by darkness.

Kimber was born in the arid and alien land known as southern California. She began consuming fiction from an early age, and has ever been eager to emulate the works that dramatically shaped her heart and mind as a child. She began creating short fiction and poetry in grade school, and wrote her first (laughably bad) novel in jr. high. Luckily, devouring the written word at an alarming rate tends to improve one's ability to produce it.
With a grandmother who is a writer and an editor, English teachers who supported her budding potential, and a husband with a clever wit and an even greater appreciation of the written word, Kimber has never lacked support in the pursuit of her bliss.
She published her first fantasy novel Quietus in 2009, and her second Seeking Destiny in 2012. The first three books of Faiden Reborn, Kingdoms Lost, Fallen Heroes, and History Forgotten were published in 2017. Her work has appeared in anthologies such as: "Ponderous Paradox", Missing Pieces IV; "Pushing the Envelope" and "A Dash of Salt & A Can of Whoop-Ass", Missing Pieces V; "Deathbringer's Apprentice", Missing Pieces VI; and "Solace Moon", The Hapless Cenloryan-The Troubadour's Inn Book I (2017 Ed.).
