Hito had tired of war, of knowing he would never be more than the second
to the hero Aranu. It was time he sought his own destiny, to leave
fighting behind and seek more. Peace, he desired, and a wife and home.
If a bit of wealth came his way, too, that was to the better. But was
that what he truly sought? Should there not be more? From the Mora
homeland to the jungled valley of the Gurang, from a new life as a
trader to that of a Kohari prisoner, condemned to be sacrificed to the
Sun Bird, his quest carries him. And does he find love, as well?
Perhaps. In Teva, the God of Rain, must he seek who he is truly meant to
be. In the end, it will be Hito himself he finds, in the first novel of
a new Mora Trilogy, GOD OF RAIN.
