Moon, Have Mercy - Paperback

by A. S. Miyasaki (Author)

In the first book of the Farodun Down series, Farodun is an adolescent Human boy growing up on Ilex. This outcast moon of Aylini Gynth is nothing like its lovely sisters, Ieus and Farodunus, and its treacherous, geologically young terrain and fearsome fauna seem to lie in wait just beyond its cities' limits. Meanwhile, systemic neglect and corruption have allowed organized crime to take root here, leaving little burgs like Farodun's hometown vulnerable.

When Farodun wakes to find he has been left for dead in one of Ilex's infamous acid swallets, he vows vengeance against those who put him there- if only he can escape the perilous sinkhole. It seems unlikely at best, that is, until he is rescued by a stranger whose motives are as opaque as their armor. He can only hope for a small mercy; that this newcomer is friend not foe, and that his situation has not merely progressed from bad to worse.

Farodun soon finds the past colliding with his present, threatening everything he has ever known. Follow him as he navigates a path carved by a history of strife to forge his future.

With 27 original illustrations, a comprehensive glossary, and more bonus content that brings the lore and landscapes of Farodun's world to life, Moon, Have Mercy is a journey of survival, perseverance, and the Human desire for home.
