The second Shushuan novel.
David Shaw, transported for the second time to the world of the Vinh, has a desperate quest: to be reunited with Kate Catlin, the woman he loves and was forced to leave behind in Shushuan during his exile on Earth. But the Thirteen Gods have other plans for David.
The Empire of Reshek is torn by civil war, its ruling House paying for generations of tyranny. But the rebels themselves are divided, and the power struggle between their leaders threatens destruction for all they have achieved. When Kate is captured by his enemies, David realises that his fate and that of Reshek are inextricably linked and he is compelled to take sides in the bitter struggle for control of the Empire.
And, in the midst of the fighting, he faces the greatest challenge of all: to convince Shushuan's Thirteen Gods that he has finally earned a permanent place in their world.
'Beyond Freedom' is a gripping fantasy adventure in a richly detailed Otherworld.
