The Ten Stones (Dym Gotha Book 1)

The people of Dym Gotha are well aware of the tribulation of the world unfolding before them. They must survive extreme drought, famine, and the machinations of a mad king. Now some are hearing whispers in the dark about the return of the Lost Ones – gods from ancient days ready to reclaim their place in the dying world. Can an orphan boy and an inhuman outcast stop the treacherous merchant Cangelosi from hastening the end of Dym Gotha? Can young Parum and the earthborn, Gath, use their wits and cunning to ensure that the beings living in the ten stones are not released upon the world?
Enter the world of Dym Gotha, where the flowing Wellspring is the only thing keeping the citizens from certain ruin, and meet Parum, who knows very well that if he fails their beloved city will crumble and die at the outer edge of civilization.
