The Archive. The Maer Cycle, #2

Love is love. Death is forever. In Hollow Road (Maer Cycle book 1), three companions discovered the monsters of legend were all too real.Rumors among the Maer tell of an underground library called the Archive, which houses a wealth of knowledge and terrible magics that could be used to start the biggest war seen since the Great Betrayal. A mixed group of humans and Maer set off on an historic quest to find the Archive and protect it from those who would use it to destroy everything they hold dear.
As the cold of winter bears down upon them, they trek through forbidding mountains beset by dangers they could have never imagined. They follow a set of ancient clues deep into the Silver Hills, forging surprising alliances and making new enemies. The humans and Maer are linked by more than their quest to find the Archive and stop an insidious war. A mystical surrogacy may bridge the gap between two peoples, and many hearts entwine as their adventure hurtles toward its bloody conclusion.
This romantic adventure fantasy features feathered dragons, a diverse cast of LGBTQ characters and relationships, and an epic storyline that leaves no heart unscarred. Author's note: This book contains explicit violence and sexual content and is intended for adult audiences.
