Veil's Edge Book 1 The Seed: Part 1 Pandora's Gifts - Paperback

by Carla Maria Atherton (Author)

About the Veil's Edge Series:

In the Veil's Edge epic/high fantasy/fantastical/magical realism series of 7 books (each released in 2 parts), Carla Maria Atherton weaves together everything from ancient and mystic wisdom, cosmology, the internal sciences, magick, star lore, dreamplay, and mythology with the social, political, personal, and relational, to reflect and reimagine our heartbreakingly beautiful, our terrifyingly lovely world, not built on limited expectations, but the possibilities-the possibilities for both the stories we tell and the stories we live.

Felt through the hearts, seen through the eyes, and told through the voices of The Lovers, The Poets, The Dreamers, The TimeBenders, The Alchemists, and The Artists, the books take readers on a wild and inspired celebration of humanity, possibility, passion, and purpose. They will leave you laughing, dancing, crying, singing, and utterly transformed.

Told around the flickering fires of the StoryWeaver, these stories are a prayer, a kiss on the wind, an apology, a Love story reimagined, rewritten for us all.

About Book 1 The Seed; Part 1 Pandora's Gifts:

When Kalea and Anahata's 18-year-old daughter Camaria sets out as a young envoy from Veil's Edge (in The Eastern Realm) to enter The Veil (in The Western Realm), she is overwhelmed but also entranced by this foreign land. Ten years she spends loving, losing, creating, and dying there, and the illusion of her current existence is blinking out like a disconnected hologram, the connection becoming as fragile as a loose and fraying wire. Camaria eventually escapes with her young children, back into the womb of her family and community, but not without scars, not without pain, not without loss, not without the echo of the troubling past. But as this Truth goes, with every death there is a birth-new insight, new Wisdom, new Life within and because of her-more answers for how to resuscitate those she had to leave behind-Pandora's Gifts pouring from the trove Camaria dared to open so many years before...

This is only the beginning...
