The Marsh Mouse Sorcerer and The Order of Ki-San

Book excerpt: From the embers of collapsed human civilization, a decadent kingdom of sapient rabbits faces renewed threats of war from the religious fanatics of the feral North. Promising a return of the Goddess Easter in exchange for the life of an embodied prophesy, the High Priesthood of the Cult of the Egg calls for the sacrifice of one of the Queen’s sons. As conflict looms, the leader of an elite group of royal guards is sent to summon the mysterious mystic mouse at the edge of kingdom to the palace towers. What begins as simple mission to escort an emissary soon transforms into the defining moment of a generation as trails in trust, friendship, magic, and manipulation are laid bare before a warring kingdom. The technology of ancient Gods meets the foreign magic of a forgotten Hermetic Order in a fantasy adventure set on the edge of time that grapples with the powers of science and consciousness against the inspirations of spiritualism and sacrifice. “To fight the demons without, one must first conquer those within.” Initiation Rite, Order of Ki-San
