Seven Stones High

Life is very unfair to Tom, but its the only life he has. Set during the time when many young men were shipping out to die in Southeast Asia, Braxton and Tom, very different in every way, discover they have one thing in common: their pasts. Brought together by providence, they soon learn about a series of tragic events from their childhoods that involve international espionage, money, and even murder. The mystery from 1952 has been set to come to its climax when Tom turns eighteen years old, near the end of his senior year, and the two boys are caught up in the middle of the shocking climax.

Collects every part of the swords-and-sorcery serial, Seven Stones. Plagued by nightmares of shifting stone and ancient evil, Absolution Kobb, Reverend Militant of the Order of the Maker, journeys to the northern edge of civilisation. Encountering violence from both villagers and the inhuman tribes that dwell beyond the palisades, and exhausted from both his age and his visions, he is saved by two very different people: Anessa, a young villager seeking to escape a life of shopkeeping; and Haelen, an ageing healer seeking his kidnapped daughter. At first, their aims align. However, with every step toward sealing the evil away taking them further from the simplicity of heroes opposing the darkness, they must each decide not only how far they will go but when an ally becomes a villain.
