Prodigy of Flame (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781958329078)

In a world plunged into darkness, the untapped power of one woman emerges as a beacon of hope.

Kaci, an apprentice to the guardian of the sacred Arba Vitae, has always felt out of place. Feared for her volatile power - especially her unpredictable fire - she finds comfort only with the Arba Vitae and her animal companions. But during the solstice gathering, the torment and humiliation she faces ignite a disastrous fire, cementing her as her village's pariah.

Following this calamity, Kaci embarks on a quest into the uncharted. "Prodigy of Flame" chronicles her journey through a realm where ancient prophecies intertwine with looming darkness. As portals spring up across Elyndris, she confronts a harrowing truth: these gateways usher in malevolent forces, corrupting the land and its denizens. To combat this, Kaci allies with three unexpected friends: Micah, a stranger burdened by his past; Belan, the sagacious kin of the Earthborn King; and Lady Durya, a dignified orc with human titles.

Their bond brings warmth to Kaci's solitary life. Navigating treacherous landscapes, she uncovers latent abilities and a radiance she never knew she possessed. Yet as the encroaching shadows intensify, her mission evolves. It's no longer just about survival but a test of courage, a quest to rediscover her roots, and an awakening of the flame within.
