Journey to the Underworld & The Circle of Emptiness (Servants of the Flower World, #4)

Joureny to the Underworld & the Circle of Emptiness
Servants of the Flower World: Book IV
Beneath the roots of the world, a path unfurls.
Jarell, Valdal, with a Waterwoman as guide, descend the spiraling maze of the Three World Plant, seeking a passage to the Underworld. There, a darkness feeds on itself—a hunger that threatens to unmake all it touches.
Above, the High Mesa holds its breath under siege.
Below, the forgotten staff awaits its true bearer.
And between them, choices are made in silence—where the loudest truths are often the ones unspoken.
In a world where names are forgotten and glories misplaced, love remains the one force that remembers.

The author, having recently completed a generational history of Ancestral Pueblo History and an analysis of markings on a stone based on Eastern Woodland Cosmology, brings this awareness to help create a fantasy world. He also makes use of his familiarity with symbolic worlds through his work on dreams and presenting archetypes of Western cultures in courses he has taught. Increasingly, the author feels immersed in a "flow," in which he sees his work as a collaboration between the universe and reader. He has enjoyed the challenge of creating an epic fantasy, filled with action and based on an alternative cosmology, which he now invites the reader to join.
