Jason L. Barnette

Two brothers from a small southern town embark on a life-altering journey to locate a missing loved one. A young girl fights for her life as she struggles to survive the horrors of her captors. A Queen finds herself entangled in a mission to save not only her city, but the whole of the land. Magic, always thought of as being games and illusions that children would perform in the streets, reveals itself to be something much darker...and very dangerous.

Edicts of Chaos invites readers to become immersed in a tale that is filled with beautiful landscapes, love and passion, the pains of death, and characters that grip the hearts of those who dive deep into their individual struggles and successes. It offers a new perspective on the Fantasy genre and delivers a captivating storyline that will intrigue adolescents and adults alike.

I know it's been a while since Book 1 was released. I took some time off from writing but I'm back at it and getting deep into Book 2, subtitled "Beyond the Barriers". Hopefully, I can have it done by the end of this year (2025).

Lojapheth and Mer vanished into a beam of light—now, their fate will finally be revealed. Pyrian and Noxx embark on a perilous quest across the impassable sea, while the Dayson brothers seek to uncover the sudden, inexplicable rift between the queen and Dea. As new magic awakens, ancient threats emerge, and shifting alliances test the bonds of friendship and loyalty, the world will never be the same.
