She hoped for a simple life, until her nature makes it impossible – and she discovers that questions can be dangerous.

Sonoria is restless with her lot in life, caring for the horses that will go to her distant masters.

When Sonoria finds that her singing charms the wild stallion Spiritus, she also meets a mysterious eccentric stranger who hints that Sonoria's greater destiny lies elsewhere.

But she cannot guess that her path will lead to the very foundation of the planet.

Eye of the Stallion: The Face in Amber is a complex adventure following the coming-of-age of a young woman, as she discovers and learns to trust the strengths within herself. Her growth threatens a decadent & increasingly violent culture, and begins the long, difficult process of reuniting the peoples of her entire world – and perhaps beyond.
