With each new dawn, the celestial body known only as 'Calamity' draws closer - and with it the end of the world. Humanity's only hope from oblivion rests in the menhirs, towering bastions of scholarship and imagination which cast long shadows across the lands. The scholars within the menhirs devote themselves selflessly to the discovery of new magic that will help avert the impending apocalypse ... or so the masses have been made to understand.

In a society divided between those with occult potential and lay citizens, Tara Langcraw is recruited into the Amber Menhir with great interest. The long-awaited heiress of a bloodline bearing the rarest of the six magical disciplines, time manipulation, she is expected to flourish within this noble citadel of learning, as are her friends and fellow recruits, Roland Ward and Peony Bianchi.

They soon find, however, that those who fail to meet expectations, or who dare to challenge the prevailing order, put more than their marks on the line. The menhir squirms with rivalries, and those who stand against the status quo may not stand for very long. - Synopsis for The Amber Menhir

Author Jonathan N. Pruitt is a lifelong educator turned fantasy author. His real-life redemption arc took him from being a child prodigy in an economically disadvantaged rural county in Florida, to obtaining his PhD at the age of 24, and then to an international scandal in 2020 that attacked his research methods.  But like the Phoenix, he rises.
