Blended World

Two peoples. Two ways of surviving. One choice that will change their world forever.
The Wanderers follow the rivers, the herds, and the changing seasons. They survive by moving, adapting, and never remaining anywhere long enough for the land to fail them.
The Stone-Born belong to the mountains. Powerful and broad-bodied, they build beneath the stone, shaping caves and rock into homes meant to endure for generations.
For as long as either people can remember, they have feared and distrusted one another.
Then two young men meet in the forest.
Kren, a fourteen-year-old Wanderer, and Garok, a sixteen-year-old Stone-Born, should have been enemies. Instead, when a deadly direcat attacks, each chooses to risk his life for the other. Beside the fallen beast, they exchange a tooth and a polished river stone and seal an oath in blood.
Life for life.
When a devastating flood forces the Wanderers toward the Stone-Born mountain, that promise will be tested far beyond anything the boys imagined. Survival will require two peoples to share shelter, food, knowledge-and eventually something far more difficult:
trust.
What begins with two frightened young men will become a road between peoples, a settlement belonging to both, families no longer divided by ancient boundaries, and the beginning of a civilization neither could have created alone.
Blended World is a sweeping speculative adventure about survival, friendship, identity, and a world that might have been-where history was changed not by conquest, but by two enemies who chose to call each other brother.
