Author Spotlight
Jason Pratt
Jason Pratt is a native of West Tennessee, and the systems manager for Dyer Fiberglass, Inc. He holds a bachelor of communications degree from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. When he isn’t freelance editing other people’s books or writing philosophical treatises as a respected guest on various Internet sites, he can be found pondering tactics and strategies in the latest wargame or studying metaphysics and world history. Occasionally he finds the time to instruct, judge and compete in the art of fencing; and has been known to write cinematic epic fantasies when people aren’t looking. Cry of Justice is the first book of an initial trilogy, the third book of which he is currently composing.
In Cry of Justice,
Monsters wander the world of Mikon. Caught in the aftermath of a vicious international war, thousands of refugees have fled the Coastal States, bringing their dangers with them into the wilderness near the untamed Middlelands. Castaways from an imploding civilization, fighting to find and to understand the most dangerous of treasures.
The cast of characters include
Portunista: innovative, ambitious, intemperate; a maga seeking her path to Imperial glory; Seifas: dark and lethal, alienating, poetic; a hunter whose words are his tears; Gaekwar: lanky, laconic, sardonic; 'only a cowherd', yet wielding exotic weaponry; Othon: the Implacable One; a quiet, quick-thinking giant of a man; Dagon: arrogant, insecure, buffoonish; a miserable commander with a knack for solving puzzles; Pooralay: ruthless and compassionate, loud and brusque- when he wants to be; a thug on a mystical quest; Bomas: renegade killer planning a subtle genocide; Artabanus: self-proclaimed Arbiter, drawing every power to himself; Praxiteles: incompetent madman, possessing and possessed by the Roguent Gamin.
In their increasingly desperate struggles -- for food, for knowledge, for life itself -- what will make the difference between brigades and bands of brigands?
