Sinner

by Sara Douglass

Published 21 August 2000

The first book of the Wayfarerer Redemption, an enthralling continuation of The Axis trilogy, by the bestselling Australian author Sara Douglass

Forty years have passed, Axis and Azhure have taken their rightful places among the other Star Gods.

Their cherished first-born, Caelum Starson, now rules and all appears peaceful. But the Throne of the Stars brings frightful responsibilities, and sometimes Caelum listens to the wrong advice. Old resentments between Acharite and Icari threaten to overwhelm Caelum's tentative control, and civil war looms on the horizon.

As there are tensions in the land and among the peoples of Tencendor, so are there tensions among the SunSoar family itself. Drago, denied his Icari heritage as punishment for a treacherous infancy is constantly reminded that while his brothers and sisters revel in power and youth, he ages under the restrictions of his human blood. Riverstar is now a vain and spiteful young woman, and Zenith, his youngest sister, is experiencing memories that are destroying her peace of mind.

But a far more menacing threat to the peace of Tencendor lingers beyond the Star Gate. The children that Wolfstar hurled to their deaths hundreds of years ago want their revenge, their whispering is becoming louder and they are not alone.

Crusader

Published 4 December 2000

The last book of the Wayfarerer Redemption, an enthralling continuation of The Axis trilogy, by the bestselling Australian author Sara Douglass

The protecting magical forests of Minstrelsea have been blasted from the surface of Tencendor, leaving demons and Hawkchildren free to feed. At the Maze, Queteb stands victorious over the body of Caelum SunSoar yet boiling with anger that the true Enemy Reborn, the Starson, has escaped destruction. With his unholy army of demon-corrupted men and beasts around him Queteb begins the search for the only man who can now defeat him.

Bound to the temporary safety of the cave of Sanctuary, the survivors of Tencendor mourn the loss of Caelum and struggle to come to terms with the traitorous Drago's true identity. Now, as DragonStar the StarSon, Drago must prepare the unwilling Tencendorians for Queteb's onslaught.

But treachery from within the SunSoar family itself threatens to undermine Drago's new-found powers and will prove fatally decisive in the final battle for Tencendor.
