UNITING THE HEAVENS
A fantasy novel by Emily English
Book cover illustration by Marisa Erven
When gods and magic clash, salvation depends on a lowly librarian.
Aren is a librarian serving the great House of Tiede. His days are spent lost in the scrolls and legends of times past, and as an outcast he couldn't dream of a better life. When a dying messenger thrusts a bloodied, secret message on him, Aren is forced down a treacherous path to discover its meaning.
Now, to prove his worth he must protect his sister against mystical forces, save the Lord Tiede's life, unmask a murderer leaving grisly sacrifices around the city, and thwart a fanatical group of mages hellbent on destroying the gods.
Does a naïve, bumbling librarian have what it takes to save everyone and everything he loves?
About the book
About the Author
Emily has spent most of her career as a systems analyst, writing and editing technical documentation and requirements for enterprise-wide systems. If that wasn’t thrilling enough, in her spare time (aka the wee hours of the night) and over the course of five years, she completed her first novel Uniting the Heavens, a story that had taken root in her skull almost 20 years ago.
Emily is heavily influenced by (and obsessed with) anime and the Final Fantasy video game series. She lives with her husband, two daughters, and a high-anxiety dorgi in the Washington metropolitan area.
