The Heroborn

In a world built on a lie, can one woman make the lie true enough to stop a war?

One day, Sasha hopes to become one of the most powerful mages of her generation. The world is not as it ought to be-the Heroes of old are long gone, nobody dares approach the elven forests, and most of the remaining mages are pushed into military service.

Sasha has no time for any of that, however. The curse on her bloodline brings ever increasing danger to her doorstep. Her only hope of a cure lies in the remote and impenetrable Hall of Heroes, but to find it she must bear the full brunt of the secrets buried therein.

About the Author

Mikko Rauhala is a bilingual Finnish speculative fiction author. Informed by his master's degree in intelligent systems, he's most at home in hard science fiction settings, though he's not exclusive and likes to cross genres. Whether the subject is steam-powered gnomes or universal quantum suicide, Rauhala enjoys taking an eccentric premise and bringing it to its logical conclusion. As befits a Finn, his plot-driven narrative is often seasoned with a touch of dark, dry humor.
