The Sword of Sorrows - Where Journey and Destiny Collide (Book 2)

The long awaited sequel to Odyssey Bourne Force delves further into the Trimadian world and its enigmatic and tragic ties with our own history.

Kate Willard, known as Queen Leah continues her journey into a twisted landscape of deceit, betrayal, and complicated romance.

The Supreme Ruler Kalvich and Cemel the Alchemist - supposedly Leah’s trusted confidant from the past, have a grand public ceremony planned to connect her with the blood stones, though not quite the way she expects. Along with the celebrity star status brings daring challenges to see if this new Queen, this ‘Chosen One’ is up to the task and can hold her own.
Not only faced with existing in an alien culture, her inner torment is still present - causing her conflicting emotions, self-doubt, and a terrible loneliness. She needs all the friends she can get, yet who to really trust is a hard enough task.

However, with her own brand of charm, humor and several bottles of wine, she takes on a chauvinistic male-dominated culture that must accept her as their Queen.

Back on Earth, Divisions, who head the Odyssey Bourne Force program attempt to destroy Heliostronus. This aggressive act deeply influences her feelings towards her former home, and revenge weighs heavily.

Upon realizing that if she is to be a true ruler, she must learn the ways of the Trimadian culture and be part of them – to learn the art of war.

Kalvich reluctantly agrees to her training, with strict guidelines, which is only the start of more trouble. Spies are in the midst, and new enemies are on the horizon, watching and waiting.

Leah learns from Kalvich’s immortal mother Edith, about the Sword of Sorrows – the ultimate peace keeping weapon created by the White Wizards and given to the elder gods to be passed on through the generations – the only weapon that can control immortality. It was stolen eons earlier by Kalvich, who required it for his own plans.

Yet, there was no reprise from the Gods themselves for such sacrilege. Was this all part of their great plans for their final Chosen One program? Or were they living in fear of what Kalvich could do?

Now with Leah by his side, will Kalvich finally carry out and complete his ultimate goal set 6000 years earlier? Will Leah’s new found powers corrupt, or wake her to her potential? Will she really learn the truth about her mysterious past and act before it is too late?

Whatever happens, nothing can compare to a destiny that could end life as we know it.
