Teleosis

When you prefer a strong female main character and a complete thrill ride with twists and turns, you will love Telesis. With worldbuilding like Sarah J. Mass, action like Divine Rivals, and the bittersweetness of The Secret Life of Addie LaRue, this story is full of the magic of women, the intrigue of complicated families, the passion of true lovers, and the thoughtful searching for all need for a new world to come to pass.

Teleosis is an action-packed fantasy thrill ride for anyone who longs to find a way to reach their fullest self.

She lost everything and was forced to build a new life…

Inira Boehme was on the brink of her ascension to the role of High Priestess and Supreme Ruler of Teleosis, an ancient civilization born at the moment of Creation to bring hope, vision, and abundance to the whole world. Until her future was destroyed and left in as much ruin as the capital city…

Then, someone from her past offers to give it all back…

Twenty years later, she finds herself face to face with the life she worked tirelessly to hide.

Destiny comes in the form of a mysterious man who promises to redeem all she lost, but it will require immense sacrifice.

Now, she must choose which path to walk…

Fraught with hidden agendas, betrayal, and enemies as old as Creation itself, Inira must confront the sinister forces threatening to destroy all that she loves while fighting the darkness within herself to find her way to transformation and freedom.

You will love how this book restores your faith in humanity!

Dear Readers in Book Club,

Thank you for reading Teleosis: A Novel of Trauma and Transformation! As I said in the acknowledgements, writing this book was my own therapy and opportunity to process what I’d been through and change how I want to see the world.

I also can’t express my gratitude for you taking the time to read - and discuss! - my work. This story (as all of mine do) has so much of me in it. It’s not my life story but there are significant parts that helped me heal and process in order to live into my own fullest life.

I hope it made you think and I hope you will have a great discussion! I write to give people a higher vision of that the world can be, so if you got a glimpse of what is possible, I’ve done my job.

I’m humbled and honored! 

Sincerely,
Amy W. Vogel
