Thanks Ginger.
Fear not for there is sword swinging, it's just not the protagonist's forte. She's more gadget and wits oriented.
That's disturbing. You're emotionally scarred and will end up badly.

Okay, I have yet another version with bits and pieces taken from various places and with some different details highlighted than the first one. I hope I'm not driving y'all crazy.
Humanity teeters on the brink, hunted by demons and a savage race called the Fari. Mystical barriers protect the few cities left, but a mad priest threatens their survival when he reawakens the ancient power of the Dead Mountain to bring forth an apocalyptic battle.
Aimee Fallon, a sheltered creator of magical gadgets, discovers a mysterious artifact—the key to stopping the Mountain’s magic—and joins an expedition to destroy the power’s threat, but little is as it seems. Along the way, she is betrayed by those she trusts and finds herself abandoned in hostile Fari lands with a forbidden lover who suspects her of murdering his kin. Her only help is an assassin: a woman with a tongue as sharp as her knives who once nearly killed her. The cause seems lost, especially because Aimee doesn’t believe she has a heroic bone in her body. But fate isn’t consulting her.
THE DEAD MOUNTAIN is a fast-paced 120,000-word fantasy adventure mixed with romance and betrayal and a female hero who relies on her wits and determination rather than swords and spells.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I like knowing who set the events in motion. And the assassin character is intriguing.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
That's looking great, Gud.
