Faith is the greatest battle. To fallen paladin Ederras, right and wrong aren't as clear as they once were, and even the forces of good seem tainted by sin. Lost and broken, the formerly righteous warrior joins up with the crusaders of Mendev, the last bastion of civilization fighting desperately against the demonic tides of the Worldwound. There he plans to rediscover his faith—or die trying. Yet even on the edge of total destruction, humanity's base nature runs rampant, leading any crusader to wonder: is there anything left worth fighting for?
From rising star author Liane Merciel comes a tale of battle both physical and ideological, set in the award-winning world of the Pathfinder campaign setting.
I try to reserve a 5 star ratng for truely outstanding products, and this might be the first one I would rate that high. Absolutely excellent story, very well written. Very likable and believable characters, and the author sows you more than tells you. I loved that both faith and religion where shows in very relivant and meaningful ways. By far the best pathfinder fictio, including the full novels. Well Done.
Certainty is a tale told in four chapters. It clocked in just under thirty pages on my NOOK. I read it in one very enjoyable sitting.
The story focuses on a former paladin who is dealing with a crisis of faith. With short stories it is too easy to spoil things by giving a detailed review so I won't say much more of the plot.
This story provoked an emotional response with me and I love that in a short story. It also made good use of Golarion and is set around the World Wound.
In closing I would just like to ask for more Pathfinder fiction from Liane Merciel.
