About this ebook

An ancient prophecy, a forbidden love, and a heroic journey to uncover the truth that will change everything...

A millennia-old prophecy was given when the Forbidden Ones were driven from Achar. Now, the Acharites witness its terrifying manifestation: Achar is under attack by Gorgreal, an evil lord from the North, whose ice demons strike from the sky and kill hundreds of brave warriors in the blink of an eye.

Amidst the chaos, Faraday, betrothed of Duke Borneheld, learns that all she has been told about her people's history is untrue. As she flees to safety from the dangerous land, Faraday rides with Axis, the legendary leader of the Axe-Wielders—and the hated half-brother of Borneheld—a man Faraday secretly loves, though it would be death to admit it. She embarks on a journey that will change her life forever, in search of the true nature of her people.

In this grand and heroic story, one woman fights against oppressive forces to uncover the truth and change the hearts and minds of her people forever. She will not desist until everyone knows the reality of the Star Gate.

Wayfarer Redemption is an epic tale of high fantasy, prophecy, forbidden romance, and magic battles in a frozen world. From award-winning Australian author Sara Douglass comes a sweeping fantasy series of good versus evil and a heroic quest that will keep you spellbound until the very end.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

First book starts out slow. It's all about fleshing the characters. But, keep reading this book took me 2 weeks to read. I read the next two in 3 days! Could not put them down. Best sci-fi/fantasy out there. You will not be disappointed! Also, series is complete. No waiting a whole year for the last book like I did.

I have bought this series over and over just to read it and immerse myself in an original fantastical setting filled with danger, magic, politics, war, family, love. This book has the makings of becoming a Hollywood hit. Great story... RIP Sara Douglass

One of the greatest books I ever read. Her storytelling paints pictures and I forget I'm reading a book and not watching a movie because she really captures the imagination... Definitely worth the read...
