Across Desert Plains - Stephen Zimmer - Bog

Only the foolish deem the desolate places of the world truly abandoned. Journeying to the Kingdom of Thrakkia, Rayden Valkyrie encounters a large contingent of nomadic Barradans. Knowing the routes through the great desert expanses and the numerous dangers encountered within them, the rugged tribal people are also hospitable to strangers and they welcome her among them. Heading westward to avoid becoming swept up in the ambitions of a bloodthirsty desert warlord, the Barradans have only one other individual among them who is not a member of their tribe; an enigmatic Hebrennan elder. Mysteries soon unfold, and Rayden's own life will teeter on the edge of an abyss. Where no man or woman dwells, things with darker intentions and ravenous hungers can set root, grow, and cast a deepening shadow across desert plains. Across Desert Plains is a stand-alone novella that is part of the Rayden Valkyrie Tales.
