Sparking the Inferno

Thirty feet of rope bridge is all that keeps Nevin from escaping an abusive home life, but fear proves stronger than pain. When a lapse in memory and a bloody canteen coincide with the arrival of the Baron’s constabulary, Nevin unwillingly goes on the run. Wherever he hides, fire and soldiers follow.

But why does it feel like it’s him they’re looking for?

The inferno chasing him casts a long shadow, and from that darkness emerges a covetous presence. Is he hallucinating, or is it his sins made manifest? With the flames driving him farther and farther from home, will he finally be able to muster the will to take control of an unraveling life, or will the strengthening shadows threaten the lives of foe and friend alike?

‘Sparking the Inferno’ is an enigmatic and moving tale of unfortunate circumstances and the responsibility of choice that plunges readers into an exciting journey across the troubled world of Stragus.

“Rich and detailed, Carter’s world and characters live with an energy that makes it hard to believe this is his debut novel!”
—Staci Olsen, Author of Falling Through Stars

“Hits the ground running, and feels like an epic saga from the opening paragraphs. Carter’s characters are vivid and complex, often morally ambiguous, and completely engaging. Description and action are handled with balance and eloquence, with crackling dialogue that fully fleshes out each character.”
—Darin Miller, Author of The Dwayne Morrow Mysteries

“Page turner through and through. This book swept me away on an adventure I could never forget. Magical systems and emotions that hit home, with characters developing before my eyes. Carter instantly became one of my favorite authors.”
—Haley Anna Marie, Author of the Elementas Series
