Vattu Book 2: The Sword & the Sacrament

Evan Dahm's richly imaginative work of epic fantasy and culture clash is finally collected in a beautifully packaged four-volume trade edition!

When Vattu was born--the only child that cycle--the nomadic Fluters saw her as their hope for survival against the brutal might of the Sahtan Empire. Having grown and left all she knows for the capitol city, she sought the tutelage of the War-men and now starts her training in the art of combat.

But with the bounds of her world expanded, she's also awakened to the full misery of imperial rule among all the tribes: Fluters are begging in the streets, the Grish have had their homes taken, even the favored Surin are kept imprisoned in a gilded cage. The empire's power is more than just military; each group has its place as fodder for Sahtan wealth and influence. Vattu soon befriends Junti, a young Surin girl who has a knack for asking too many questions and a special ability that may hold the key to their freedom, or their continued subjugation if it falls into the wrong hands. If these new friends can pull off a heist in the empire's seat of power, Vattu's personal revolution will truly begin.

The next chapter of the thrilling VATTU saga widens the scope and raises the stakes in a bold new fantasy adventure!
