Ten years on from Three Kinds of North and The Sundering Wall, Jerya's life feels settled and comfortable, until a new acquaintance brings new possibilities and new dilemmas. Perhaps Hedric can become more than a friend, but only if Jerya is prepared to align herself with the owner-class.If this is isn't enough to contend with, news of a planned expedition across the mountains prompts a fateful decision. Jerya's return to the Sung Lands is meant to give warning, but will the Guild of Dawnsingers see it in that light? Not if her old nemesis, Perriad, has anything to do with it. Jerya finds herself risking everything she has come to hold dear.

A new journey of discovery begins.Having finally broken with the Guild of Dawnsingers, Jerya and Railu are joined by Rodal as they strike out into the mountains. None of them have any idea what lies beyond the borders of the map, or if there are feasible passes through the high peaks.Tensions mount under the strain of the hazardous journey, and thoughts return to their former lives and friends left behind, but Jerya's determination drives them on. Each will be tested in different ways as they draw closer to unravelling the ultimate mystery of the Unsung Lands.

A distant future. A recovering world.Remnants of a shattered moon traverse the skies, memorials to an ancient and nearly-forgotten conflict. In an isolated northern land, society is overseen by the reclusive, all-female, Guild of Dawnsingers, which holds a monopoly on advanced learning. Life seems peaceful and well-ordered. But are the Dawnsingers as benevolent as they seem? What secrets are they hiding?And what really lies beyond the mountains in the East?Orphan Jerya unexpectedly finds a home in the Dawnsingers' Guild, but her new life turns sour. Soon she finds herself struggling to reconcile the exhilaration of learning with her growing doubts about the very basis of the Guild's rule. Ultimately she faces an agonising choice which could utterly change her life, and the lives of her two most trusted friends.Award-winning outdoor writer Jon Sparks turns to speculative fiction in the first book of The Shattered Moon series
