Dark Star Burning, Ash Falls White cover

In the gripping sequel, Lan and Zen face new challenges as they seek power and revenge against the Elantian colonizers in Dark Star Burning, Ash Falls White.

The sequel to Dark Star Burning, Ash Falls White continues the gripping tale of Lan and Zen in a world inspired by ancient Chinese mythology. As Lan seeks to avenge her mother's death at the hands of Elantian colonizers, she embarks on a quest to locate the legendary four Demon Gods. Her mother dedicated her life to defeating these gods, and now it's Lan's turn to finish what was started. However, she soon realizes that she is not alone in her pursuit, as others are also hunting for the gods' power.

Zen, on the other hand, has made a fateful pact with the Demon God known as the Black Tortoise. He understands the risks involved, knowing that his soul may be lost in the process. Yet, his love for Lan and his desire to save the Kingdom drive him to seek greater power. To confront the Elantian invaders, he requires an army, and he knows just where to find it: in the undead forces led by his great-grandfather decades ago.

As tensions rise and battles loom, the Elantians may have seized control of the throne, but the struggle for the Last Kingdom is far from over. With a rich narrative filled with adventure, intrigue, and the complexities of love and loyalty, Dark Star Burning, Ash Falls White promises to keep readers on the edge of their seats.
