Out of Stone takes two characters from j g rees' 'anoxic zone' series and gives them headline roles. They fulfill them rather tremendously; we are shown horrors from theirs and other lives that immediately become our own, bringing us into worlds we did not know existed. We follow Sechra, who was a peculiar little girl as Halocline ended, decades later in Romania where her adoptive parents have raised her.
Sechra had turned into quite the sculptor in her teens, continuing on to amaze and confound her family, acquaintances, and then the art world, none of which had never seen such hideous visions, let alone imagine them. Her Aunt Karuna, was there more often for the girl, as her daughter Riana & Vlad, her husband, Voivode of Romania, were more involved in the workings of their people and land. Karuna felt the evil in Sechra’s work and knew it had to be out in the world as well. That was what Sechra’s work was saying. And she knew she had to do something about it.
We follow them both to hell.
