Dawn: Solstice Book 1

By C.A Villari

The world of Solstice is eating itself alive.
Magic flickers with the dying sun, Ambrosia poisons the streets, and the Five Families tighten their chokehold on the world itself. Something is missing-though no one knows it: a throne stands empty.

Silas Orn is nothing.
A ghost of a father and husband, ruined by the Families and clinging to life for the next dose of Ambrosia. Yet a gift remains for him-
a crown unworn, far heavier than the ones the Families pretend to possess.

The power to take the city back-and the duty to do so-now rests on his shoulders, a dormant force within him awakening to make him something more than he ever believed he could be.

To survive, he must remould himself.
To win, he must reforge the world.

For fans of The Black Prism, Cradle, and The Lies of Locke Lamora, this mafia-infused, action-packed progression fantasy delivers a rich world, sharp character arcs, and relentless magic-fueled momentum.
