**An International Bestselling Series** Runa, the prophesied Daughter of Five needs to learn how to master herself, or all of Pendomus will perish. In a world where mythical creatures are either controlled, or on the brink of extinction—a prophecy reveals there’s one who can restore balance. The only problem is, she has no idea how to do it. Separated from the only people who’ve had her back—as … it.
Separated from the only people who’ve had her back—as well as the love of her life, Traeton—Runa must go on a quest alone to uncover what it means to be human, as well as the Daughter of Five. Dropped in an unknown location, presumably still on the planet, she only has a monolithic book—the Caudex—as her guide, but it’s not giving up its answers easily. Will she be able to uncover the mysteries? The fate of the entire world rests on her shoulders and her ability to push through all of the challenges set her way.
Will she learn what she needs to step into her role as savior? Or will everything be derailed by her desire to get back to her friends?

INTERVIEW WITH CARISSA ANDREWS
Q: What inspires your writing?
A: I’ve always had a passion for ancient history and old mythologies. I originally went to school for archaeology, but ended up studying ancient art, history, and literature. My life experience has also brought me to some very eclectic interests, which I’ve used to elaborate in my stories… I wanted my stories to be a blend of not only the things I found fascinating, but the sort of tales that I knew my readers would be enthralled with. If you can put down one of my books, then I don’t feel I’ve done my job.
Q: What other books are tied to Pendomus?
A: Pendomus is the first book of the Pendomus Chronicles, a young adult scifi/fantasy/dystopian series available for readers who love genre-bending speculative fiction.

Q: What are your newest books?
A: For 2020, I released The Windhaven Witches series. This series was inspired by a dream I had when I was only 14 years old, which felt more like a past-life memory than a dream.

A strong second book in the series. I am often times let down by a second book but Carissa has continued to bring a solid follow up in book two. As Runa goes through her trails I am also look into my life. I love it when an author can also be inspiring,….. self-help books can be so dry sometimes. What better way to self reflect then through Sci-fi.
WOW! I didn’t think this story could get any better after finishing Pendomus but when I picked up Polarities I found out real quick like just how much better it could get.
There was so much more detail in the world building in Polarities. The descriptions were out of this world amazing with each little detail I felt as if I was there experiencing it all myself. It was like having ESP….as if Carissa and I were on the exact same page and as if the characters and I both were traveling in the same world.
In Polarities Runa is separated from her friends and ends up in another time and place and as the Daughter of Five Runa faced a number of trials on her journey that took her from the present to the past. Completing the trails puts Runa closer to her goal of saving Pendomus.
While Runa was a way her journey she met quite a few different creatures who helped her along the way. I enjoyed seeing Runa trying to converse with the creatures.
We are introduced to a few new characters in Polarities but there was one in particular that grabbed my heart and that was ten-year-old Ammon. He was so sweet and cute. Ammon had been kidnapped and beaten by a very bad man and left all alone with no food or water when Runa found him.
Polarities is a very interesting and engrossing read that had me hooked with all the excitement, mystery, the world building, the characters, the trials, the love and all the twists that it kept throwing at me; oh and not to mention the ending but I am not going to speak of the ending as I don’t want to spoil the story but I will say it is something to look forward to. I can’t wait to dive into the next and last book of this awesome trilogy Revolutions.
All I can say now is read this trilogy, the Pendomus Chronicles now; but I do suggest that you start with the first book Pendomus and then Polarities oh and don’t forget the prequel Trajectory as it is a remarkable story as well and is a part of this trilogy, the Pendomus Chronicles. One click yourself a copy of Polarities today!
Runa is on a journey as the Daughter of 5. But she isn’t real sure what is going on, where she is exactly, or what the end result is going to be. Her friends are all grieving. Trae is suffering massive headaches that cause him to blackout. Much is revealed in this story and there is still so much we don’t know! I loved this second book in the series and I am so excited to keep moving on.
