The Shepherds of the Sunstone

Each night, screams echo in the desert. Each dawn, blood soaks the sands.
In desperation, nomads raid Dagad to capture Simon–a simple architect–and kill his father in the process. He vows vengeance and plots his escape–until night falls, and he sees exactly the horror the nomads are fleeing—monstrous beasts.
Saudett–Simon’s soldier wife–frantically leads a band of warriors after him. With her is Hata–her other lover with a newly awakened but deadly magic. Little remains of the humans that the demonic beasts leave behind. Even less remains of the beasts that Hata leaves behind.
Simon distracts himself from the horror with the attentions of a certain man.
But every night grows bloodier; every night, the beasts grow bolder. Time and water are running out. As everyone converges on the nomad’s hidden city, Simon’s freedom fades into the background. Only one question remains: will they choose to fight for those who harmed them…
…or will they let them drown in blood and sand?
This gripping tale features an LGBTQ+ male/female couple in an open relationship.
Fans of Andrzej Sapkowski and Robin Hobb will be captivated by “The Shepherds of the Sunstone,” a richly crafted fantasy story with vivid world-building, unexpected twists, and relentless action.
