A thousand years of war. A sacred light built on a lie. And a truth powerful enough to destroy the world.For over a millennium, soldiers have died at the Mountain Temple, believing the Stillight—a divine flame of red and gold—demanded their sacrifice.They were all deceived.Theron hides in a forgotten village, feeding the starving and asking for nothing. Atonement is all he has left for the choices that shaped the war. But when battle erupts at the Mountain Temple once more, his past drags him back.Nyra commands the Sylphar legions with ruthless precision. Total victory is the only answer. Failure is not permitted. But the orders she receives from the gods themselves make no sense—and obeying them may cost her everything.When their paths collide beneath six empty thrones, they uncover a truth the gods never wanted revealed.The war was never about territory. The gods aren't distant. And the light everyone worships? It's been lying from the beginning.Stopping the war means confronting what keeps the world alive. And some truths don't set you free—they doom you.A dark epic fantasy for readers who crave:Morally complex characters with no easy answersMagic systems with brutal consequencesGods who lie, manipulate, and hide in plain sightWar portrayed with weight and cost, not gloryPlot twists that reframe everything you thought you knewWhat readers are saying:★★★★★ "The prologue is grand in scope, cinematic, and propulsive. Reminiscent of Gardens of the Moon by Steven Erikson."★★★★★ "I finished the last 100 pages in one sitting at 2am on a work night. Everything that seemed random earlier comes crashing together and it's so satisfying."★★★★★ "The magic system is weird at first but once it clicks it CLICKS. There's this moment around the 90% mark where everything you thought you understood gets flipped."★★★★★ "Can't wait to see how this messes with my very being like what Stormlight and First Law did."★★★★★ "It's epic, it's gory, it's deep—everything you want in a fantasy novel. The conflict is brutal and remorseless."★★★★★ "This is exactly the kind of fantasy I want more of."Perfect for fans of complex magic systems, morally gray heroes, and devastating revelations.A Shroud Undone is the first book in A Fractured Balance, a complete trilogy that will be published all in 2026, where every answer raises darker questions—and the cost of truth may be more than anyone can pay.From the Author:A.M.
