Through Kestrel’s Eyes, the sequel to Back From Chaos in the Earth’s Pendulum trilogy begins seventeen years later. The peace that followed the end of the Red Plague is shattered when the lords of Gharn and Leith are toppled by traitors, throwing the land into chaos.
Liannis, the goddess Earth’s seer, her apprenticeship interrupted by the death of her beloved mentor, must help restore the Balance. Until it is, Earth’s power is weakened, preventing Earth from sustaining the rains needed for good harvests. Drought and famine result.
Liannis battles self-doubt, the lure of forbidden romance and deep, personal loss as she faces tests that take her to the brink of her endurance.
But Earth sends a kestrel to befriend her that allows Liannis to ‘see’ with her eyes when her own do not tell her what she needs to know, and a vain, white horse to carry her, both with the ability to mind-speak.
The people with starve if Earth cannot heal from Chaos and the Balance cannot be restored. Time is short.
