Seize the throne. Seek the legend and conquer the Abyss.
Nations rise and fall in the aftermath of war over the Eternity Gate. The corrupted desert throne stands empty, and the Immortal Abyss awakens. Drought ravages the continent, and people long for the rebirth of a starpalm, who will rise from among mortals and end their judgment.
Orphaned at birth, Tol grew up hiding in the farthest corners of the desert, training under powerful rebel fire wielders. She now dedicates her life to the Rebellion’s cause to seize the throne and Abyss from the surviving dynasty and deliver both to the coming deity.
Chosen as the Rebellion’s messenger, she travels to reach sympathizers capable of identifying the starpalm. Familiar figures haunt her dreams, and her path twists with every step she takes. Can Tol fulfill her purpose and summon a legend? Or will her country perish under the judgment of the twin gates?

More from Katherine
Hello friend!
Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you tried, you couldn’t overcome something difficult in your life? Maybe it was a bad habit you wanted to outgrow, a closed door you wished to open, or a choice you needed to make.
Within God’s will, Jesus in Matthew 19:26 says, “With God, all things are possible.” (ESV)
This is why I wrote The Immortal Abyss. Like you, I have felt stuck in my limitations and circumstances. My protagonist Tol, an orphan, strives to carve a new life for herself by joining a rebellion and bringing reform to her corrupted country. But how can she serve her cause if she can’t overcome her weakness in her fire gifting?
Like Tol, we can’t rise above challenges alone. So, what do we do?
- Ask God for help and thank Him for promising to never abandon us.
- Seek friends who will reciprocate spurring one another on to persevere.
- Remain focused on our purpose.
If you’re looking for an adventure fantasy that will encourage you to never give up on what is good, please enjoy The Immortal Abyss, sequel to The Eternity Gate and conclusion to The Threshold Duology.
Cheers to journeying across forbidden lands, meeting new friends, taming dragons, and overcoming the impossible!

My Review
The Immortal Abyss continues The Threshold Duology by Katherine Briggs. I enjoyed the first book from the series, The Eternity Gate, and was looking forward to seeing what happens next. I found this tale offered readers hope with lots of action, twists and turns. As someone that is not a big fantasy fan, I was surprised at how quickly I was able to immerse myself in this one. I thought it was a pretty good book to read.
I am giving The Immortal Abyss four and a half stars. I recommend it for readers who enjoy reading clean fantasy fiction. I am interested in reading more books from Katherine Briggs and seeing what she has in store with her characters.
I received a digital copy of Katherine Briggs’ The Immortal Abyss from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
