A world that values slow arts and crafts and cherishes plants and animals... What could go wrong? Fox True's adoption into the famous Oak clan thrust her into the slow culture of the city of Komey. It should have signalled a life of bound motherhood, aimed at returning her talent to its rightful owners, but nothing is as it seems. The Companionaris' ability to grow plants and breed animals is failing, a murderous ambition has been sparked, and there is a stirring of old magic in the air. Together with Mica, a Beranish wanderer, and Oria, an aging companion, Fox must uncover a sinister plot threatening to destroy the fragile peace between the Companionari and Beranish peoples. In a race against time, the three heroes discover shocking truths and make impossible choices to save the Stone Body and its people from a dystopian future where the price of plenty is murder. The Light Heart of Stone is a captivating epic fantasy that explores sacrifice, hope, and resilience in the face of disaster. The Light Heart of Stone is the expansive first volume in the Promise of the Stone epic fantasy series. If you like intricate prose, matriarchal fantasy, Australian epic fantasy, and if your fantasy leanings are speculative, this series will speak to you.
