Shanakan (The Fourth Age Of Shanakan Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
It was a place that Rin had given him, a place on Cabarissa. He was standing above a road that followed the line of a cliff. It was a dirt road, but broad and smooth and sufficiently set back from the edge to be safe from the sea. The country was hot, dry and dusty, decorated with thin leaved bushes that came up to his waist. Almost at once he began to sweat and peeled off his jacket. His eyes followed the road and the cliff down to where the house stood, just as he had seen it in his mind’s eye. It was a good sized house, he saw now, and blended with the cliff so that it looked natural and ancient. Its roof was grassed, and it was backed into the rise of land above the cliff so that one could walk down the hill and onto the roof. He had to squint against the harsh light of the sun which brightened both the pale surface of the road and the waters of the sea. To his northern eyes the colours seemed unreasonably clear and solid, like a child’s painting.
