Description

Fate, Chaos, Random Chance, Free Will, Order, and Cause & Effect are much more that abstracts - they are planes of existence outside of and conjoined with our Prime Reality, and together they constitute the Seven Realms. The motivating purpose for the denizens of each of the six outer Realms is to impose their singular, individual impetus upon humanity to the exclusion of all else. To counter this, the two races of The Chosen - intelligent housecats and stoic gargoyles - serve the Arbiter, a human bestowed by The Creator with the power to enforce The Balance among the Seven Realms.But not just any human can be an Arbiter; to fulfill the role, one must be an Equi and selected and trained by the previous Arbiter.The only problem is, the unthinkable has occurred - the Arbiter is dead, and he hasn't had the opportunity to train his successor.College student Rowan Aspen thought his 21st birthday would be no different than the previous ones - doing morning chores on the farm, going to classes at the University of North Dakota, and then having a birthday dinner and opening presents afterward.Instead, before his day had really started, Rowan saw an explosion from the nearby estate of Alder Blackthorne, the reclusive multi-millionaire. As Rowan drove his truck to investigate, he almost ran down three cats that bounded out onto the icy road in front of him.These cats turned out to be no one's lost pets. Rather, their coming heralded the beginning of a grand and unexpected journey that Rowan - along with his two best friends, Asher and Holly, and those of The Chosen - would undertake in the months to come¿A journey that would require vast courage, reveal mystical secrets, and bring two pining lovers together-A journey that would reveal mysteries, unveil a grand betrayal, force a horrific choice upon Rowan, and require the ultimate sacrifice-A journey that would ultimately decide the fate of every living being on Earth-Because Rowan was the Last Arbiter.
