Kingdoms Lost (Rise of Faiden, #1)
Description
In the eight hundred years since the overthrow of the mighty High Kingdom of Faiden, the Oracle has been quietly arranging the fates of the children who will someday challenge the darkness that is consuming the world of Midia. Ferremor, a half-demon shadow master, is abandoned on the stoop of a ramshackle orphanage as a newborn. Kenneth, an infant fae with strange wings, is left on the doorstep of a human general. Young Vera, the Royal Imperial Princess of Faiden who narrowly survived the slaughter of her family, awakens from an eight-century mystical slumber. All three were displaced by the misfortunes of their past and struggle to survive and find happiness in a kingdom ruled by ruthless sorcerers and their dark lord.
As they face the violence and horrors of their harsh world, none of them could ever imagine what the Oracle has planned for them or the role that they will play in the destinies of Kingdoms Lost.

Person
Kimber was born in the arid and alien land known as southern California. She began consuming fiction from an early age, and has ever been eager to emulate the works that dramatically shaped her heart and mind as a child. She began creating short fiction and poetry in grade school, and wrote her first (laughably bad) novel in jr. high. Luckily, devouring the written word at an alarming rate tends to improve one's ability to produce it.
With a grandmother who is a writer and an editor, English teachers who supported her budding potential, and a husband with a clever wit and an even greater appreciation of the written word, Kimber has never lacked support in the pursuit of her bliss.
She published her first fantasy novel Quietus in 2009, and her second Seeking Destiny in 2012. The first three books of Faiden Reborn, Kingdoms Lost, Fallen Heroes, and History Forgotten were published in 2017. Her work has appeared in anthologies such as: "Ponderous Paradox", Missing Pieces IV; "Pushing the Envelope" and "A Dash of Salt & A Can of Whoop-Ass", Missing Pieces V; "Deathbringer's Apprentice", Missing Pieces VI; and "Solace Moon", The Hapless Cenloryan-The Troubadour's Inn Book I (2017 Ed.).
