Behold the power of Chimor! Silluka, Ichu, Cosquella and the other refugees from their destroyed village have discovered the world is much bigger than they thought. Now they scrape by in Chimor, a huge city populated by multiple species, gods, and magic. But all is not well. Ichu has been tainted by the mysterious god of the Eztli Mecatl, and his magic no longer works as it should. Elder Quilqi pushes Silluka to hone her intent before she's ready, in order to test for Mental Adept, then fight in the Chimor arena. And Lugopo is channeling ever stranger inventions from their eldritch gods... But even the might of Chimor itself is challenged when the invading turtlemen arrive across the desert. The shifting lands are coming together, and the gods vie through victories in Chimor's arena for which species has the right to rule. To even hope for survival, Silluka must learn Intent Magic.

William C. Tracy writes tales of the Dissolutionverse: a science fantasy series about planets connected by music-based magic instead of spaceflight.
He currently has five books out, from a coming of age story, to tales of political intrigue, to a Sherlock Holmes-like mystery, to a Jules Verne style adventure, to the first book of an epic space opera, titled THE SEEDS OF DISSOLUTION. Several books include LGBT-friendly elements as well.
William is a North Carolina native and a lifelong fan of science fiction and fantasy. He has a master's in mechanical engineering, and has both designed and operated heavy construction machinery. He has also trained in Wado-Ryu karate since 2003, and runs his own dojo in Raleigh NC. He is an avid video and board gamer, a reader, and of course, a writer.
In his spare time, he cosplays with his wife such combinations as Steampunk Agent Carter and Jarvis, Jafar and Maleficent, and Doctor Strange and the Ancient One. They also enjoy putting their pets in cute little costumes and making them cosplay for the annual Christmas card.
