Golden Sands OF Isalan: The Story
Golden Sands OF Isalan: The Story
Book One of the The Golden Sands of Isalan series was a finalist in the 2009 Next Generation Indie Book Awards.
Isalan: the City of Life. Located in the timeless desert kingdom of Serenia, its colourful characters and busy streets set the scene for the adventures of Sarah, a young girl destined from birth to a great cause.
The tales blend mystery and mysticism with magic and culture as they tell the story of her beautiful and sometimes daunting life. They take you on a journey through her trials and triumphs as she grows into a young woman and develops the knowledge and mystical abilities needed to fulfill her purpose, a purpose that is slowly revealed as the tales unfold. In the process, Sarah learns some of the life's most vital lessons.
Ultimately, the odyssey is about discovering one’s path in life and choosing the values to live by.
These tales have several layers of depth to explore: at one level they are enchanting adventures through a mythic landscape; at another they depict psychological and spiritual truths that can inform and guide the inclined reader. In essence they combine story telling and map-making in the ancient tradition of the teaching tale.
We invite you to explore Sarah’s world through Book One which will provide a brief synopsis of the tales contained.
