Tranquility

Paperback (Elk Lake Publishing, Inc. March 10, 2019)
She must prove there’s more to life than peace and more to death than dying.
The One People find guidance to peace and unity in the pages of TRANQUILITY. Drethene views the methods prescribed in the book as hurtful attempts to escape their diverse ancestry. Such pain is personal, as her parents aim to conceal how different she looks from the rest of their people
.Even her job keeps Drethene quiet and secluded. While working in the Academy library, she secretly reads histories used only to teach future leaders to loathe the past. Drethene is inspired by these books filled with cultural variety. When she discovers another world as part of her people's heritage, a well-established enemy is revealed, and she rises to meet the truth and save both worlds.
Now Drethene must convince the One People that their lives are not as tranquil as they seem. They are being hunted and must reunite with a sister-world that has been erased from their past. If they choose to remain in the comfort of their rewritten history and false sense of peace, they will be dragged into the maelstrom they have forgotten to fear.
Tranquility is a refreshing take on the fantasy genre. Filled with magic, prophecies, and plenty of mythical beings, Conklin weaves an intriguing, imaginative tale that grabs you and doesn’t let you go until the last page. With a rich cast of characters, vivid world building, and a story you’ll be talking about long after you finish reading, Tranquility leaves readers both satisfied and yearning for the next adventure in the series.—Kathryn Lee Martin, author, the Snow Spark Saga
With brilliant world building and unforgettable characters, Tranquility will leave readers wanting more.—Jennifer Salvato Doktorski, author, August & Everything After
Conklin constructs the world of Tranquility into a living, breathing realm filled with secrets, creatures, lores, and meticulous beliefs. Her tale paints a vivid picture of an oppressive society, where diversity is stifled and criticism is squelched, but an undercurrent of hope lives through it all. It’s a smart, eye-opening read. By the end, you’ll be longing for more. — Sonia Poynter, author, The Last Stored
