Questions haunt him; is he the cause of the deadness creeping across their world? What...or who...are the Evensongs that called to him? He took something years ago that he didn't have the right to, but now that he has it, what is he suppose to do with it?
Adventure, intrigue and tangled relationships run rapid in this fanciful tale of a magical world, the young people striving to stay alive and the Evensongs trying to be heard.

But fate has a big plan for Vila! She is bestowed with the gift of the crystal, an honor in her village, but it will lead her beyond her village and push her to be more than she ever imagined she could. When her village is destroyed by the darkness Vila sets out to find the answer to the terror destroying the world around her.
Shul is a fierce warrior with a kind heart and gruff voice. Exiled under the penalty of death from the Palace of the Blue Robes for going against their beliefs, Shul has traveled the land searching for answers. His travels become more complicated when he comes upon a small band of youngones. He must now keep them all safe and face down the danger of returning to the Palace to find the answers he seeks, because the darkness must be stopped.
Together Shul and Vila become a force to be reckoned with, the only problem, they hate each other, or do they? Together can they find all the things the evensongs require to save their world? Together can they keep the youngones safe? Can they destroy the darkness before they kill each other? Read Quest of the Evensongs to find out!

A gripping adventure into fantasy unfolds as eight young college students find their way into the Evensongs, and discover a power beyond their imaginations.

It can be read before or after “Quest of the Evensongs” (though the author likes it after), creating the harmony for “Chorus of the Evensongs” due out the in fall of 2011.
