Shepherds of Truth: Book 4 of Thaumatropic Roots
Shepherds of Truth
Book 4 of Thaumatropic Roots
Truth has a cost.
And the world is about to pay it.
The elves see extinction coming—and for the first time, they understand what it will cost to stop it.
The trolls are no longer scattered raiders, but an organized force led by Warlords who should not exist—some bound to dragons, others touched by powers older than memory.
Elliah was born without magic—Bereft, feared, and prophesied as a destroyer. Now she is the one voice the world cannot ignore. As armies gather in the ruins of Bellon and long-broken alliances are reforged, Elliah must choose whether she is the key to salvation… or the one whose choice finally tips the world toward its ending.
Hughelas walks a different path—learning forbidden magic from dragons, bending distance itself—while the Mother of Trees fades, the past demands its due, and truths long buried claw their way into the light.
To survive, the elves must do what they have not accomplished since the Breaking: unite across bloodlines, defy prophecy, and confront the cost of the choices that have kept them alive.
Because if the truth is finally spoken—
it may end the war.
Or end the world.
Shepherds of Truth is the epic conclusion to the Thaumatropic Root sseries—an ending forged in sacrifice, legacy, and the dangerous freedom of choice.
