Ember: Birth of a Revolution

by Mark S. Moore

Damien Flynn was a politician on the rise in one of the largest colonial empires in history before he was betrayed by his peers and sentenced to death. Victoria Montgomery; orphaned by the last war, now finds herself as the de facto leader of a new rebellion that has stagnated and atrophied. The two of them could not have been further removed from each other, yet now the fate of Riccha lies in their hands.

Embers of revolution still glow in the heart of Braiton’s largest colony despite previous failures, but no one has been able to stoke them, not until now. An unlikely partnership will provide the direction that was lacked, maturing a group of insurgents into the revolutionaries they seek to become.

With growing numbers, and a stronger purpose comes greater challenges. Wary eyes from Braiton, the colonial rulership of Riccha begin to turn toward the fledgling insurrection, and swift punishment sets out from the Empire’s shores to snuff out the rebellion before it can take hold.


Birth of a Revolution is the first in an on-going series of low fantasy novels that follow

the Revolutionary tale of the second Ricchan revolution. The struggle begins long before armed men and

women take the field. The need for relevance and purpose is as real as the cold steel of a saber or the

boom of a cannon. To rebel against a colonial power is difficult enough, to rebel without your own

countries support seems nearly impossible.
