Synopsis

Fallen prophet, master of the elements, and daughter of the supreme Protector, Sanao Mokoya has abandoned the life that once bound her. Once her visions shaped the lives of citizens across the land, but no matter what tragedy Mokoya foresaw, she could never reshape the future. Broken by the loss of her young daughter, she now hunts deadly, sky-obscuring naga in the harsh outer reaches of the kingdom with packs of dinosaurs at her side, far from everything she used to love.

On the trail of a massive naga that threatens the rebellious mining city of Bataanar, Mokoya meets the mysterious and alluring Rider. But all is not as it seems: the beast they both hunt harbors a secret that could ignite war throughout the Protectorate. As she is drawn into a conspiracy of magic and betrayal, Mokoya must come to terms with her extraordinary and dangerous gifts, or risk losing the little she has left to hold dear.

Goodreads review by Bradley

Following the events after the first Tensorate novella, we deal with healing and grief from a different PoV. The other twin. Point of fact, I got into this one a bit more than the previous one because more time was spent inside the skin. Internal dialogue and a very limited time-frame, as well as a m......more

Goodreads review by Elle

Unbelievably beautiful – and better than the first of this novella series in my humble opinion. Sanao Mokoya is a fallen prophet working to protect the rebellious from her old home in the Capitol of the Prectorate. But on a quest to save the city of Bataanar from a mysteriously powerful naga dinosau......more

Después de lo mucho que me gustó "Las mareas negras del cielo", me moría de ganas de leer la segunda parte del Tensorado, "Los hilos rojos de la fortuna". En esta segunda entrega, la historia se va a centrar más en el personaje de Mokoya, justo al contrario de la primera entrega que seguía los pasos......more

Even better than the first. This is really a wonderful story of dealing with grief and learning that we're capable of changing even things that seem set in stone.......more
