Jollivans travels: Gods and Monsters

They say the strongest can rival gods. They say the weakest are prey for monsters. Jollivan never meant to be either. When his family’s caravan is torn apart by a Rift ambush, Jollivan is thrown into the Forest of Nightmares — a place where even bonded warriors vanish without a trace. There, on the edge of death, he meets Valerian: a Nyrian general on the brink of corruption. Their bond should never have happened. It’s unstable. Dangerous. But it’s the only thing keeping them both alive. Now hunted by Withered Ones, drawn into the politics of kingdoms at war, and facing enemies whose power can tear landscapes apart, Jollivan must survive long enough to master a strength that could save the world… …or destroy it. In a land of gods and monsters, the only safe place is the one you can take for yourself.
