A World Lost to the Collision of Politics, Piety

When politics and piety collide, the conflagration consumes a mighty country and imperils the world.

This website is all about the Green Stone of Healing® series—epic fantasy packed with romance, action, and intrigue. The novels explore how state backing for an exclusionary religion leads to worldwide cataclysm that obliterates a powerful island nation called Azgard.

The series features four generations of strong-willed female characters who inherit a mysterious green gem ultimately revealed to mend broken bones and broken hearts, protect against missiles, and render its wearers undetectable.

These stalwart protagonists learn to use their jewel to offer a healing, inclusive alternative to a government that persecutes those who do not look like or share the religious beliefs of its leaders.

Readers who become fond of these and other characters will be delighted to discover that they reincarnate, affirming that not even death can separate lovers and loved ones (or enemies).
