To the common, human men and women of Grimaton, the central continent on which they live is the only world they know. But King Stewart has long been aware of other, smaller continents surrounding the one he seeks to control. "The Isles Seven" his advisers call them. Tabs are, of course, kept on the activities across each of the isles, but a rash of recent and strange occurrences on one in particular have drawn his attention away from the war he wages on his homeland.
'The Isle of Bones' is a new anthology of stories set on the world of Grimaton. Each story in this collection depicts the different races of the world's eastern-most continent. If the threats of the isle spill over, Cliffside will be the first to suffer, and the path to the rest of the main continent's prominent cities will be laid bare.
12 authors, both new and returning to The Awakened ongoing series, bring to life the heroes, villains, and unfortunate souls caught in between on the Isle of Bones.
