      Exiled and with little to guide him but the mysterious prophecies of the Tindaya Code, Terrel travels ever onwards, hoping that each step will take him closer to his homeland of Vadanis.

And this time, even Terrel’s power may not be enough to stop it.

      The Jasper Forest is the second book in the Guardian Cycle, a sweeping fantasy epic from one of the best new storytellers of the genre. Exiled from Vadanis, the homeland he risked his life to save, Terrel finds himself adrift on the ocean. Delirious with hunger and exhaustion, he is at the point of giving up when he realizes that he is approaching land. Rescued from the perilous waters by two fishermen, Terrel is nursed back to health; but the ghosts of his friends, both dead and alive, are still with him. For now, events on Vadanis are beyond his control. His new home, however, faces difficulties of its own, and Terrel may be in a unique position to overcome them. Leaving behind the villagers, he embarks on a remarkable quest to discover the truth—about the world and about himself.
