The Earthrin Stones Book 2 of 3: Trials of Faith: Inheritance of a Sword and a Path

The gods of Dhea Loral once signed a peaceful Covenant to end the wars they raged on mortal soil. Now that the realm has recovered, several endeavor to inflame old grudges. This time, they are limited to using mortal followers to carry out their plots.

Four years of study have honed Trestan's mind, heart and sword arm. With Cat at his side, he embarks on a holy quest to finish his training as a paladin. What he doesn't realize is that the quest will begin amidst the devastation of his home village.The wizard Revwar and the dark cleric Savannah have returned with new allies. The relics that were once recovered will again be the subject of a renewed struggle. A pursuit will encompass two continents; including a chase in city streets, a deadly struggle above the clouds, and encounters deep within an unmapped wilderness which humans dare not tread.

The key to unlocking the mysterious history of the Earthrin Stones is found...buried in a dark page of Cat's past.

Trials of Faith is the sequel to The Earthrin Stones 1 of 3: Inheritance of a Sword and a Path

Reader's Comment: "The first book was great. This book is stunningly beautiful. ...his characters have grown even more 'real', even more precious. Emotions and actions literally leap from the pages, and I found myself laughing or with wet eyes on more than one occasion. I would recommend this series to any serious fan of fantasy.

About the Author
Van Dyke, Douglas: - "Douglas was born on Nov. 28, 1971. He got the chance to live in many different places while he was growing up, courtesy of the assignments the US Army offered to his father. Too quiet and too shy for too long, there were always dreams of other worlds and places...and the desire to write about them. He got into fantasy role-playing games in his mid-teens. To this day he has friends whom he meets in tabletop role-playing games as well as online adventures. Many of his characters evolved in games, and each developed their own personality. Inheritance of a Sword and a Path is the second book he wrote, though the first he published. He finished the rest of the Earthrin Stones series and has moved on to other novels set in Dhea Loral...some of which reference the events in this book! The Widow Brigade started its reception earning ten straight 5-star reviews, including a recent widow who said it helped with her healing process. He has been making appearances at local conventions and signing books for fans. Though Douglas expanded his entertaining to include game streams and recordings on YouTube and Twitch, his passion remains centered on his writing. Douglas lives with his wife and two boys in Minnesota. He works in healthcare, serving people's needs at both hospitals and clinics depending on his rotation. When most people see him, he is wearing scrubs.
