Just Under the Sky - R K Gold - Bog

Far off in the mountains is a village surviving in turmoil. Constantly under the threat of food shortage, villagers live their lives in fear of the neighboring forest. It's evil. It's something they do not understand; something they can never understand. Living between the communities looming hatred and violence towards a being they cannot control, and the harsh political climate of their leaders, Jasper and McMichaels make a break for the unknown. With their friendship tested constantly, the two adventurers are put on a path they may not be able to return from. Trapped together, will they be able to escape, or will they remain prisoners?
