Baeorillia: Beyond the Flames - Derrick Sasuman

. .

Résumé :
A great Civil War tears the once stable Southern Empire of Hayu-Min. The Chayumi, deeply oppressed and hated by the Shiyumi Empire, rose to fight for their freedoms. Shaeng Min-Yun, the banished Crowned Prince of the Southern Empire of Hayu-Min, struggles to understand his place in the nation. As his Clan works to undermine him, he will have to find a way to rise above the obstacles they placed before him despite lacking the Fire that makes his Clan so great. ? Zheng Qi Lin, the heiress of the Chayumi People, leads the rebellion against the Empire. Her hatred, her anger, will lead them to the path of glory, or to burning defeat. Praised as the rebirth of the last Queen of Tianxia, the Chayumi Homeland, she struggles to decide who, or what, she wants to be. As the wars continue, the betrayals and court intrigue grip their nations with poisoned claws, a greater power grows in the shadows, watching and waiting. If they cannot look Beyond the Flames, this power will swallow Baeorillia whole.

Biographie:
Engrossed with Fantasy for as long as he could remember, he was disheartened to learn there were few grand fantasies with an Asian lens. Since he was in High School, he had dabbled with writing competitions, such as NaNoWriMo (albeit never winning), and started working on Baeorillia as a sixteen-year-old with nothing more than a dream. He is deeply inspired by the greatest fantasy authors and anime, along with Asian Mythologies and cultures. Derrick lives in Houston, Texas with his fiancee.
