His father needs his life force. His corrupt uncle would enslave him. Can he trust in the kindness of strangers, or is he walking into certain death?

All abused farm boy Valis Bakor has ever wanted is to be safe and loved. So when two holy warriors offer him sanctuary from his evil family, he makes the difficult decision to abandon all he's ever known. But in a world infected by followers of an evil god, he fears the protection they offer is just an illusion.

Dogged by his lecherous uncle as they travel to the monastery far away, Valis has no way of knowing if the bonded warriors mean what they say. He wants to believe they could be the fathers he's never dared pray for. But after his sire tried to slaughter him for power, Valis knows better than to believe in love.

Valis must overcome his fears and learn to trust himself if they're all to survive. If he can, a lifetime of safety and acceptance could await him at the end of the perilous journey. But will he die trying?

Saviors is the first book in the completed God Jars Saga, a rich world full of destiny, violence, and love. Join Valis and his found family in their sweeping epic fantasy adventure today!

Tags: Found family, untrained mages, Valis' parents suck, new adoptive fathers are awesome, Aesriphos are BAMF paladins born to smite all the baddies, Valis has totally legit trust issues, no daddy kink here, new dads are just awe-inspiring, Valis might have a hero complex, to be fair his father tried to sacrifice him to an evil god, so no wonder, lecherous uncle needs to go bye-bye, Valis is not a BAMF yet, but he's working on it, let men have emotions please, Valis has all the emotions, communication, because miscommunication is the devil's trope, if I gotta talk about my issues regularly so tf do my characters

Author's note: Saviors is an epic fantasy with romantic elements and is an epically slow-burn romance spread out across books 2-6. There will never be a romantic or carnal relationship between Valis and the two Aesriphos who care for him.Also, please keep in mind that touch starvation is a real and serious trauma response that Valis suffers from PTSD. This is also a world where men are allowed to have and openly express deep emotion and to seek out or offer touch to comfort and show platonic affection.
