The Sands of Akhirah is the captivating second book in The Valor of Valhalla dark urban fantasy series. If you like reluctant heroes, infernal myths, and bloody epic clashes, then you'll love Martin Kearns's formidable foray into the unknown.
Brief description: I have always been enamored with myth and the fantastic, even as a child. They offer an escape from the mundane, but also deliver a fine method to guide our moral compasses, learn about other cultures, and assign meaning to those things that vex us.I studied literature and history in college and found myself delving more and more into theology and mythology as I went because literature is filled with their essence.My exploits have guided me to the desk as a language arts and special education teacher, but my heart always whisks me back to the bookshelf or the desk to visit these fantastic worlds of the supernatural. Stories were my first love and during rare moments of quiet my mind turns toward those I've watched, read, and lived. They bring to mind possibilities, which are really where the seeds of a story begin. I truly hope to bring creative tales to readers who, like me, enjoy finding themselves lost somewhere in a world of endless possibilities.
Review Quotes:
A strong sequel in the Valor of Valhalla series, it had what I enjoyed about the first. The writing style was what I was hoping for and enjoyed from the first book. The characters were great and I'm glad to go back to them. - Kathryn M
