Twisted World of the Keykeeper
21 parts Complete Aria Lorne has never quite fit in. Eleven years old, brave to a fault, and endlessly drawn to riddles and forgotten stories, she spends her days hiding from bullies and burying herself in books at the town's ancient library.
But everything changes the night a storm rolls in, and the mysterious librarian hands her a silver key - one that unlocks a hidden door and plunges Aria into Everveil, a crumbling world where magic has turned wild and shadows whisper secrets.
Lost in a place where winged cats talk, rivers run backward, and riddles guard ancient relics, Aria must find a way home before the creeping Hollowing Mist consumes everything she loves - and discovers along the way that maybe, just maybe, she's braver than she ever believed.
A story of courage, belonging, and the strange, fierce magic of being different.
