Garden of Light: Beneath Devouring Eyes #1
One must lead. One must teach. One must transform. And all must decide: will they rise to the occasion, or let the world crumble?...
Domi, a young thief abandoned at birth, just wants to save his dying foster mother. But first, he must commit the most dangerous heist of his life, snatch an artifact with miraculous healing powers from under the noses of the most powerful sorcerers in the land, and survive the awakening of his own magic.
Daedalus, a young royal, just wants time to mourn his mother, who died two days ago. But first, he must ascend the Throne of Solitude she left behind, don the Onyx Crown she once wore, and become the next Princeps Worldholder, Keeper of Heaven and Earth.
Valens, a seasoned sorcerer, just wants to return to the borderlands and battle rogue magic. But first, he must escape the twin burdens of taking a wife and an apprentice-duties that threaten to trap him in the city and tether him to a life he's spent decades avoiding.
As the fates of these three strangers intertwine, the sorcery holding the world together begins to unravel. And beyond the planet's weakening magical protections, an ancient threat waits...
