The World Above the Sky transports seventeen-year-old Eugainia St Clare Delacroix—the Living Holy Grail—from certain death at the hands of her enemies to the safety of the New World. The year is 1398. Fleet commander Prince Henry Sinclair, Eugainia’s protector and champion, clings to the dying Templar dream of establishing a New Arcadia with Eugainia enthroned at its beating heart. The Royal and Holy Blood flows in Eugainia’s veins: her lineage stretches back beyond the Christ and Mary Magdalene, past the Kings David and Solomon, past the man-god Pharaohs of Egypt to the dawn of time itself.

Eugainia disembarks weakened and near death on the Atlantic coast of Canada. There stands the handsome, young and recently widowed Mimktawo’qu’sk, chief-in-waiting of a peaceful clan of east coast Mi’kmaqs. In Mimktawo’qu’sk’s veins runs the Ancient and Honourable blood of The People, blood as potent with magic as the living bones of the earth, blood rich in the mysteries of the star world—the world above the sky. In the time of the Two made One, Mimktawo’qu’sk and revitalized Eugainia break their chains, redefine divinity and, together, forge a new and shining world.

Product Description

Review

"Stetson, a Prince Edward Islander who's no slouch in the dreaming department, may in fact remind some here of a latter-day J.R.R. Tolkien... Sail as far as you like and with whatever tales of the Templars you choose – you should be so lucky as to drop anchor in The World Above the Sky." (Porter Anderson)

“The one thing that all Canadians need to know about Kent Stetson is that he’s the author of The Harps of God, probably the best single play written about this country.”

“Stetson's dialogue is sharp, his descriptive imagery is painterly in its artfulness.”
