The Last Prospector by Cairn Rodrigues
I won a signed paperback copy from Masquerade Crew.
(Page 56 in paperback)
So when the torch started dipping that very first time over the eastern edge of the land and the sky began to darken ominously,no one knew if the light would ever come back.
The creatures panicked as they has never been cold before, never before been blind. But just before the torch disappeared completely, something amazing happened.
SYNOPSIS
Solstice is a world apart, created by a mysterious Boss and shaped by tempers of warring twin goddesses. Once it was a playground for sisters Ylumya and Ynoirya, but then the wars began. Now Solstice is the stage for the final battle between light and dark. Everyone must choose a side. The Boss sired the first prospector 1,000 years ago. Charged to search for a treasure unnamed, an unbroken line of men have been caretakers, shepherds and warriors for Solstice since the misty times. Now, Grayme Ceruleya is the last prospector, he is destined to find the treasure. But what happens to Solstice when he does? A runaway slave dies giving birth alone in the desert. The nomads who find the baby don’t realize that the child is the pawn of the gods and wields more power than they can comprehend. Except for one boy, broken-hearted Tonyo who makes a tremendous sacrifice to ensure the baby’s safety. In Solstice the unlikely is probable, magicks are mundane and all the stories are true. It’s a land of stunning natural beauty, filled with exotic wildlife and vibrant cultures. Powerful factions like the whore’s guild make the rules, ancient enemies find new strength and dreamers are waking up all across the land with one message. The Final war between the Twins has started. A victor must be decided this time.

Wow! What a great teaser! Why has this world suddenly been overcome with darkness and what could have happened that the light may never come back again!? And what is that something amazing that happened!? GAH!
I thought it was the perfect tease. Got lucky that it is on page 56. Nice to see you Claudia.
Sounds interesting. I wonder what caused this drastic change in their world and how they’ll adapt. Could make for a good story.
