"Maybe we'll start with the day the sky split open. There was this sound, like a vicious explosion that shook the building and threatened to split our eardrums. I was the first to my feet, I raced the others to the deck and we gawked at the scene before our eyes. Out over the ocean, a tear, a festering wound in the sky." In a flooded world full of mutant fish and frighteningly adept killers known as "riftmen" Hugh Jericho wakes up naked in a tiny village full of strange people and he has no idea how he got there. He's told, however, that he was fished out of the ocean by a team of people exploring the outer perimeter of the rift. As he gets to know the people around him, he relives his past through story telling and the dark secrets of the rift are revealed.

In Book I of the trilogy, Tamras, our hero, arrives in Merin’s house to begin her apprenticeship as a warrior, but her small stature causes many, including Tamras herself, to doubt that she will ever become a competent swordswoman. To make matters worse, the Lady Merin assigns her the position of companion, little more than a personal servant, to a woman who came to Merin’s house, seemingly out of nowhere, the previous winter, and this stranger wants nothing to do with Tamras. Tamras’s journey begins with the smallest of steps. She sets aside her disappointment and performs as well as she can the humble tasks given her, and eventually she succeeds in winning the trust and then the friendship of the cantankerous warrior to whom she has been assigned. In the first year of her journey, Tamras will make a series of choices that often seem insignificant, but they will flow from her character and from her good intentions, and they will determine her destiny.
