The Crystal Flame

By M.S. Marcellin

When mythological nightmares break free from ancient legends, two teenagers must race across the world to stop an unstoppable darkness.

Amelia's life shatters in a hospital waiting room.

One moment she's sitting by her injured mother's bedside. The next, shadow creatures with razor claws and venomous fangs are hunting her through the halls. Thrust into a nightmare she doesn't understand, Amelia has nowhere to run-until she meets Zane, a boy wearing a mysterious crystal flame necklace who's being hunted by the same monsters.

The creatures aren't random. They're mythological beasts torn from ancient stories, and they're multiplying.

Airports burn. Cities fall. Innocent people die as dragons, chimeras, and demons of legend ravage the world. The only hope lies halfway across the globe: a legendary crystal with the power to restore light and destroy the encroaching darkness. But the journey to Japan's Mount Fuji is a gauntlet of fire-breathing dragons, impossible choices, and enemies who were once allies.

Amelia must become the warrior she never knew she could be.

Armed with a sword she barely knows how to wield and a mysterious Belt of Truth, she fights through underground caverns, faces creatures that should only exist in myths, and discovers that the battle between light and darkness demands more than courage-it demands sacrifice. With Zane by her side and time running out, every step forward could be their last.

But some prices are too high to pay.

And some sacrifices echo into eternity.

Perfect for fans of Wings of Fire and The Chronicles of Narnia, The Crystal Flame is an epic young adult fantasy adventure about finding light in the darkest places, the courage to face impossible odds, and discovering that true strength comes not from power, but from love.
