What to expect
The epic quest that began in The Shiver Tree continues in The Whisper Tree, book two of The Amarra Chronicles.
The continent of Amarra rests on the brink of disaster.
With the heart of druidic magic failing, the balance of nature faces destruction. At the behest of the enigmatic sage Xander, elven druid Kiana Paletine joins a new party of adventurers—including a fearsome Infernal, an axe-happy half-orc, and an unpredictable mage—to help stop the spread of evil. Their quest is to track down three magical artifacts once belonging to the long-dead royal family of Amarra. These Treasures of Rule hold the power to bring peace back to the lands—but only if an heir can also be found.
Before their mission can succeed, however, Kiana must find a way to save the Whisper Tree from corruption brought by the devils who invaded centuries ago. A monster once held in stasis now roams free, imbuing the surrounding lands with chaotic magic and sinister aberrations. Kiana and her companions must race against the hourglass sands to save the Tree and find the Treasures of Rule—before their enemies enslave all of Amarra.
