There is no night in the Everburning City. There can never be. ***** For four hundred years the Everburning City has withstood the advance of the life-strangling fog known as the Gloam. Its walls have held back five invasions, but on the eve of the sixth, the city's inhabitants know things have changed. Golems are coming out of the mist, and the bodies of the dead are rising at the Gloam's bidding. The city's last and most desperate line of defence comes in the form of the Crafters, individuals who can channel the power of fire, though they risk their sanity each time they do. The brightest of these valiant heroes are Tabitha a'Loria and her apprentice Gerald Reath. Risking their lives, they mount their airships, determined to save the last bastion of humanity - the Everburning City. [[word count: 100,000-150,000 words]]

This is the original, unedited version of Light as a Feather, Book #1. This book was the inspiration for the Hulu Original Series. The revised version is now available in bookstores throughout the USA & Canada from Simon Pulse. McKenna Brady thinks her junior year of high school is going to be the best ever when she's welcomed into the elite group of popular girls at Weeping Willow High School led by blonde, gorgeous Olivia Richmond. Prior to junior year, McKenna was known in her small town as the girl whose twin sister died in a tragic house fire, and she's overjoyed at the prospect of redefining her identity. She has a date to the Homecoming dance with Olivia's handsome older brother, and a good chance of being elected to student council. For the first time since McKenna's parents divorced, things are looking up. But everything changes the night of Olivia's Sweet Sixteen sleepover birthday party. Violet, the shy, mysterious new girl in town, suggests that the girls play a scary game called Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board, during which Violet makes up elaborate stories about the future ways in which beautiful Olivia, brassy Candace, and athletic Mischa will die. The game unsettles McKenna because she's already escaped death once in her life, but she doesn't want to ruin her friends' fun. It's only a game, she reminds herself.

"Revival is to those who take the side opposite the grave, and those who we thought were dead have chosen their side." The continent of Eswain was once ruled over by shape-shifting 'gods and goddesses' who have been long forgotten since their demise. In their place, 'Guardians' protected cities from fallen enemies. But what happens when the Guardians disappear, leaving children to control the fate of the warring sides? Naomi would have preferred to keep all remnants of the war forgotten. She would prefer to keep her comfortable old life, without peculiar strangers arriving and insisting that she comes to an odd school filled with trouble. Without mythical creatures and prophecies and mysterious teachers. Without a destiny to stop the coming war. Michael wouldn't have called his old life 'comfortable,' but he might go back if he could have. Before it was destroyed. Before he was mixed up in the growing war between spirits and deities. Before he came face-to-face with the scourges that killed the Shapeshifters. -This tells the stories of Michael and Naomi. Feel free to read them separately. Hopefully there will be new chapters weekly! Sorry they're so long!-
