Shattering of a World: Thorns and Roses (Book #1)

Far and beyond it's only winter all year long in the seven lands and surviving is hard to come by in these frozen wastelands. They say the average man cannot come by on his own in the harshest of times in these lands and it would be merely impossible to take them on his own. The people of the seven lands honor the seven gods and even with winter being their only weather the people of the seven lands have managed to figure out many ways to survive and their most prized thing they've ever made for survival was their beautiful greenhouses. However, they say that the seven lands are not the only lands in the world and now the kingdom of Uniniqua is planning to be the first of the seven lands to attempt to take voyages out on the Malgaesic Sea to know for sure if there truly are other lands out there and that starts with volunteers.

Katrina, a soldier in training for Uniniqua is a person a lot would consider very friendly, but she is not afraid to stand up for herself if one tries to talk down to her and has the sneakiness of a cat.

Tarion, a soldier also in training for Uniniqua is a very serious guy that doesn't mess around and prefers to work hard, and is never afraid to back down from something.

Both wanting to be soldiers one day for Uniniqua it may take a voyage away from the seven lands to up their chances, but will they take that chance?
