Anger will not be quenched by blood alone. The Missing, a rebel army that is little more than a rumor, may be Kaylo’s only path to exact his vengeance against the empire that claimed his home and killed his family. If it means a chance to balance the blood he owes, he will steal spirits and become the Missing’s tool, as long as they aim him in the right direction. Eighteen years later, a war is raging between factions for control of Ennea. With Tayen, Kaylo, and Nix caught in the middle of a power struggle—Kaylo will have to find a way to fulfill the promise he made to Tayen, Nix must face the consequences of her betrayal, and Tayen will have to choose between vengeance and her spirit. When blood is owed, virtues will be challenged. "No Safe Haven is a masterful piece of deep, expansive, captivating storytelling, with an emotional depth rarely seen in the fantasy genre as a whole." E.J. Doble - Author of Fangs of War "This story grabs you by the throat and drags you across the entire spectrum of emotions, both good and bad, leaving you completely breathless by the end." Esmay Rosalyne - Before We Go Blog "If you're a fan of any kind of fantasy, I urge you to put this book immediately in your TBR." Liza Gray - FanFiAddict "No Safe Haven is a maelstrom of raw emotion... Prepare yourself before entering this book. It's ruthless in its storytelling, courageous in its themes and poignant with its characters." Luke Winch - Luke's Book Nook James is a nerd with a head full of stories and limited time to put them on the page.He grew up in Grand Rapids, MI, spending an excessive amount of time at a local community theater where he developed his affinity for storytelling. This affinity grew into a deep admiration for language and spoken word poetry while studying mathematics and education at the University of Michigan. A few hundred mediocre poems and lackluster performances later, he decided his dream of writing a novel might not be as ridiculous as he once thought. He firmly believes that art-even silly books about magic, or maybe especially silly books about magic-has the ability to tell stories that sink beneath the surface.
