Description
A forest beckons.
It hides a relic in its roots
and provokes a perilous quest...
As a scribe in Semadon’s orderly society, Ceera Kestlyn fears for her reputation when a shadowy forest summons her through a vision and her dreams. Then three men go missing in a remote wood, and she decides it’s her duty to find out why.
Leaders allow her to accompany Dassius Rucien—a member of the Sci-Defense team—to seek counsel from the Archaics. But these keepers of nature’s secrets—who can harness the power of the elements—offer help that is dangerous to obtain. Amid these harrowing encounters Ceera’s dreams intensify, revealing that the forest hides a relic in its roots: an object that could explain her dreams and thus prove her credibility to Semadon’s leaders. Yet as the forest beckons, it also seems intent on destroying her, for entering the woods could leave her mind as twisted as the trees…
IMMORTAL ROOTS is a futuristic and mythical eco-adventure, complete with controversial mystics, an eccentric inventor, a bitter and dangerous spy, and two warring councils.

Loved it! The book takes you on an adventure as Ceera uncovers more about the past to preserve the future. Yet it carries a relevant message to today current issues. . Wonderfully written, keeps you guessing.

This was a fun and interesting read, the premise grabs you from the beginning and don't let go till the end. The characters are very well done and I he there's more to this world.

I will start off by saying that if there is a second book I will gladly read it, but this book is one of those ones where the writer knows exactly what is going on with the world and characters, but forgets that the readers are not privy to the author's head. The first half of the book the characters felt flat, but the last half they begin to become characters and have dimension to them. My favorite character is Dassius because he is the one who develops the most throughout the novel.
