The Civilization

By K.M Mckenzie

A kidnapped girl. A lost kingdom smothered in night. A YA portal fantasy rooted in African mythology--perfect for readers searching for books about witches and parallel worlds

Seventeen-year-old Kadsa has crossed deserts with her grandfather chasing the myth of Marut. Then a shattering truth strikes: she was kidnapped from Toronto, her real name is Skylar, and the life she longs to reclaim is an ocean away. One fateful choice hurls her through a portal between parallel worlds into a kingdom where gods walk beside mortals, a dark witch commands legions of shadow, and a hidden prince bound to darkness may be the last spark of hope.

To save Marut, Kadsa must master a crystal's light, outwit deadly court intrigue, and decide where she truly belongs--home with the mother who's been searching for Skylar, or in a realm that now looks to her as Abnr's Gift.
