A foiled coup attempt results in a power vacuum that leaves this alien world
without its treasured weapon. The aliens have no choice but to take Liana as
their reluctant new Avatar. Only an angry slave and a small group of resistance
fighters can free her and the universe from the dangers of her power. Over a
decade in the making, A Distant Soil: Coda is the fourth volume and
penultimate chapter in this science fiction/fantasy saga.
