Daudet Henry Bennett

Hunger and despair have begun to crawl over the Land like a poisonous mist. Fear rises everywhere, of others, of themselves, for the future. With Elandra, the green goddess of nature dead, her daughter Daudet, the perpetrator of that death, moves across the Land wracked with guilt and anger. Her power over the elements and animals proves no comfort to her, until she meets her aunt, a goddess of heat, and the holder of a secret. Might her mother still live?Meanwhile the Big Man himself, Alphonse, and his friend, the sensate Bailey, are visited by a stranger with a bizarre tale. Bailey's partner, the wood nymph Ober, takes in the stranger, and thereby starts a wave of events which culminates in a battle with men, who have decided to dominate the Land at the expense of anyone in their path, perhaps prompted by the evil that brews in The Forgotten Way. Who causes it? Can it be stopped? Picking up where Elandra, the first book in the trilogy, began, Daudet weaves a tale of remorse and forgiveness, strength and friendship, in the midst of foreboding times
