here are things far worse than Death.

~*~

Clarisse knows all-too-well that things are not as they seem. Fragmented memories are beginning to surface of a life she doesn’t remember — a life that has put her in the sights of the Neylka — the Nothing — that swallows gods whole and spits them out new… changed.

Clarisse must do her best to escape its clutches as it sends the infamous Leyun to collect and deliver her soul to her. Even worse, Clarisse still can’t seem to master her power and understand why the stars that whisper in her veins grow brighter… stronger.. the longer she stays in the Afterlife.

With Death and Bast now by her side and Terrence on an errant journey for vengeance, Clarisse must fight for more than her quiet Afterlife in Yehta. She must fight to protect her very soul. All the while, strange memories and whispers of a goddess long dead begin to surface. Clarisse is running out of time to solve the mystery of where Siralto went, lest she herself become another chapter in Tyrladan’s history.

Clarisse’s story continues, and the stakes are higher than ever in Beyond the Stars, book two of the Tales of the Selyento!
