At the end of a third terrible year, five great nations struggle with unprecedented famine. What can they do when farms yield a fraction of their needs? Rivers contain few fish. Even the great herds of the steppes dwindle. It seems their very world is dying, slowing claiming the lives of plants and animals alike, forcing humans to turn on one another. Isolated in the west by a mountain range, small skirmishes break out between the Kingdom of Ekonae and Sabua Nation. Sonas Estuary, once the most abundant source of life in the world has declined to a worrying level. Such is the strain on their nations that the king of Ekonae and emperor of Sabua agree to a duel to the death. The winner will possess the once shared resource in its entirety while the loser faces accelerated decline. In the east, the Republic of Botlea, the largest and oldest nation, lacks the breadth of coastline possessed by Kendea and Lasai. The three senator primes that rule there must decide if war with one or both of their neighbors is the right course. With resources at an all-time low, every nation grows desperate. Many turn to the mysterious sky children, those who fall from the sky in eggs as babes. Aside from a few rare magical artifacts, only they possess magic. Though often hidden away, the sky children must leverage their secretive powers if anyone is to survive long enough to discover the source of the great dying. Born of the Sky is an epic six part series. Battles will rage, sovereigns will fall, and heroes often won't prevail. Many will turn on one another, revealing the brutality of human nature. For fans of adult fantasy in the vein of A Song of Fire and Ice (Game of Thrones).
