    Book One of the Chronicles of the Fae Trilogy Darkness stirs in the forgotten places of the world. The southern realms whisper of shadowy forces rising-an ancient evil long thought buried now reaching for the heart of the mortal lands.

Among them is Lyra, a young druid bound by a secret heritage, whose destiny may determine the fate of every realm. But even as trust is forged in battle, the threads of betrayal are already being woven. The path will lead them far beyond mortal borders-to truths older than the gods themselves, and to a revelation that will shatter every belief they hold about light and darkness. The war has only begun. The shadows are spreading. Continue the journey in Rescuing the Light-where the cost of victory may be more than they can bear-and GodFire, where gods themselves will bleed.
