Description

Book Two of the Shadows of the First Trine

As darkness falls across the Sacred Land, wielders of magic find themselves hunted, dragons take flight, and a young man discovers power he never knew he possessed.

Dorenn Adair's life was simple once—until the day he realized he could wield essence magic. Now, plagued by a mysterious sickness that threatens his sanity, he must journey to the legendary Isle of Doom for a cure before his newfound powers consume him. Meanwhile, his betrothed Tatrice undergoes her own transformation, binding her fate to legend.

But dark forces are stirring. The sinister Naneden and the ancient evil of Toborne have unleashed an army of shadow creatures. With the Western armies mysteriously vanished and the Silver Drake captured, the balance of power has shifted dangerously.

In the world of Rennirus where friendships are tested, alliances are forged and broken, and ancient magic awakens, Dorenn and his companions must navigate treachery and their own natures. Their journey will take them from the ruined battlefields of Brightonhold to the magnificent red city of Draegodor and the depths of the Great Sythian Forest—where dreams and destiny intertwine.

Will they master their newfound powers before the shadows engulf them all? Or will the serpent in the mist strike when they least expect it?

Perfect for fans of epic fantasy with complex magic systems, mythical creatures, and heroes facing their darkest hours.
