\"Entertaining story of fascinating other realms.\" –Kirkus Reviews

In a realm where a great river of power flows beneath the surface, one woman's quest to mend a disastrous past could either save her world or doom it forever.

Caught in an age-old war she never wanted to join, can a woman on the brink of madness fulfill a brutal prophecy that could determine the fate of a realm? In a high-tech world teetering on the edge of collapse, Crystalyn Creek's life is as drab as her job—until an ancient book adorned with strange symbols ignites her mundane existence. But when her uncanny ability to decipher these mysterious designs opens a way to chaos, her carefree little sister, Jade, vanishes into the fray.

Determined to rescue Jade, Crystalyn leaps through the shimmering gateway, plunging headfirst into a chaotic battleground where light and dark magic collide. Yet as she delves deeper into her newfound powers, the shadows of madness stir, threatening to consume her. The weight of a brutal prophecy looms, and time is running out—not only for her sister's safety but for the survival of their world.

In a reality where greed for power intertwines with raw ancient magic, Crystalyn's quest is fraught with treachery, dark forces, and shocking betrayals. Forming uneasy alliances with unlikely companions, she must navigate alien landscapes rich with danger, confronting the turmoil in her heart along the way. With every choice, she edges closer to destruction—but also to the strength that could restore everything she holds dear. Or become the catalyst that destroys it all.

Beyond the Sapphire Gate launches The Flow of Power series, blending sci-fi and fantasy in a captivating tale filled with richly woven details, dynamic characters, and shocking twists. If you're yearning for an adventure that defies the ordinary and keeps you on the edge of your seat, plunge into R.V. Johnson's enthralling story, where every decision could spell doom or deliverance!

\"Great dark fantasy!\" -Vine Voice

\"If you love Tolkien, as I do, you will love this book.\" -Veronica Richards

\"Fantasy done right!\" -Kindle Reviewer

Ancient evil crawls from the dark. The great river of magic threatened. An epic struggle to prevail.

Wielding the strongest magic ever known to Astura, Crystalyn faces the hooded man’s ruthless determination to annihilate a peaceful race dwelling within the vibrant beauty of an ancient vale. Ultimately, she faces a desperate choice: hunt down a former love she still harbors feeling for who threatens everything, or save the lives of those she loves most.

Tracking her betrayer into the desert harshness of the Shimmering Sands with a few select companions, she finds the dark robe has hatched a brash plan to gain a powerful weapon, knowing full well it will unleash a devastating malevolence on the land.

The chase leads into the bowels of the vast Dark User fortress, the Dark Citadel, where the combined might of Crystalyn’s followers gathered on the way may not get them out alive.

As sibling Jade’s ability to read futuristic images whirling within a person’s aura grows strong, a new dire influence emerges, robbing strength from others. Clinical and calculating, its supreme alien cunning has subjugated entire worlds with no one the wiser. The creature seeks a suitable permanent host, a bright spot of light moving about the land that draws the supreme being to it. Its search brings to light a bounty: a strong human with a compatible ability it did not expect…

Beyond the Dark Gate is the riveting second installment in The Flow of Power Chronicles, an epic sci-fi fantasy series! Great for fans of The Wheel Of Time and The Stormlight Archives!

\"Magic and other races really add to the magnificent story!\" –Auburn, Vine Voice

\"Great dark fantasy!\" --Vine Voice

\"Entertaining story of fascinating other realms.\" –Kirkus Reviews

One touch kills. But not right away... And what follows is far worse than outright death.

In a world threatened by the One Mind, an alien entity seeking to dominate all life, Jade Creek finds herself a prisoner in her own body, struggling against the alien's control. Hope rests on her sister, Crystalyn, a powerful User, and a group of companions as they navigate betrayals, face monstrous creatures, and seek to sever the One Mind's grip on Astura. As war looms and alliances shift, Crystalyn must confront her possessed sister, grapple with her father's role in the encroaching darkness, and ultimately make a terrible choice to save her world or family... Or lose all.

For fans of The Lord of the Rings, The Stormlight Archives, and The Belgariad.
