Talin and the Tree: The Legend - Book 1

By Stephanie DosSantos

Book Overview

Can Talin keep the legend alive, and survive to fulfill his destiny?

Bullied and alone, Talin struggles in what most would view as a Caribbean island paradise. Until the day he finds a portal within a sacred silk cotton tree, leading him to an underground world filled with mystical energies, quirky characters, and proof that some superstitions are more than just folklore.

It seems as if he's found the perfect escape, until his bully, Dewain, is slated to become the town Healer: a traditions' old position of protection and leadership that has been vacant for three generations. But Talin suspects Dewain and his family have evil intentions. To expose Dewain, Talin must navigate old-school Caribbean folklore below ground, and present-day society above ground.

Striking a balance between the two worlds, Talin faces physical and mental challenges like never before.

Will he accept the challenge or will Dewain and an old family secret prove too powerful, derailing Talin's plans and extinguishing his birthright for good?

If you enjoy portal fantasies with a sprinkling of magic in a modern-day coming of age story, you'll enjoy this fresh retelling of old island folk tales.

Talin and the Tree - The Legend is the first in Stephanie DosSantos' debut fantasy series.
