Deep Water: Bloodstone

Deep Water is a duology. That's like a trilogy with one less book. The first volume is called Bloodstone, and the e-book should be available in the next week or two. The second volume is called A Whisper in the Void, and it will be another month or so before that one comes out.

Anyway, here is the cover design for Bloodstone:

And here is the book's blurb:

A shared dream has begun to trouble the people of Tesaria, a dream of helpless drowning, of suffering in some watery place. The loremasters say the dream is a bad omen, but no one really knows its origin or its meaning.

In the midst of this uncertainty, the Elite Guard of King Helathius begin rampaging through the mountain villages, seeking a stolen artifact. After a tragic encounter, a young man and woman--Jeren, son of a village patriarch, and Aleas, a merchant's daughter--find themselves on a desperate flight for their lives into the lowlands, seeking a safe place to hide.

But there is nowhere to run, for a dreadful power is at work in the heart of the nation, and no one can hide from the time of cataclysm that approaches.
