Book Overview
A forbidden magic. A kingdom poised for ruin. And the boy who never mattered...until now.
Sixteen-year-old Geoff throws knives for a living. Juggles them even. Usually while they're on fire. So, for a young Wandering performer, he's no stranger to danger. He thrives on thrill-far from his toxic family-venturing through the metallic world of Alandra with his adopted Wanderer family.
That is, until he makes the mistake of saving the life of a fugitive.
Unrelenting soldiers have chased this fugitive, Aidal, across the forested kingdom, Ethamiar. She turns to the Wanderers, of all people, to help her, promising them something Geoff can't deny: gems. But what starts as a simple journey, devolves into a dangerous game of infiltration, rebellion, and survival. All the while, Aidal has been keeping secrets that could threaten Geoff and his Wanderer family.
What has left her jaded?
What really happened to cause her to become a fugitive?
And if Geoff decides to join her cause, will he take the fall with Aidal...or unveil the inner workings of the sinister villain behind it all?
Perfect for fans of Brandon Sanderson, Harry Potter, and Eragon, this gripping found-family, coming-of-age, young adult epic fantasy grabs readers straight out of their world and throws them into high-stakes battles, world-building, never-seen-before magic, and secrets that'll keep you reading deep into the night.
What readers are saying about Wanderers of Alandra:
"I can't recommend Wanderers of Alandra enough for young adult or adult readers.
With the variety of characters in the Wanderers and those we meet along the way, I think we can all find ourselves in parts of this story. The author has a well-thought out sense of each character and the writing reflects that.
There is a little bit of everything in here for everyone: coming-to-age, family, action, fantasy creatures, magic, and even a bit of will-they-won't-they. I highly recommend this book to anyone that enjoys an adventure."
-Ryan Newell
"Trent Alldredge has a unique ability to create worlds unlike anything you have ever seen in any other fantasy book. In Wanderers of Alandra, dangerous metallic Dralans are just one of the hazards faced by the people who live in a world where exhibiting magic is considered a treacherous mark against your character and results in your banishment from society forever. I cannot wait to see what lies in store for the rest of this series, and what future worlds Trent Alldredge designs for our amusement. This is the up-and-coming author we've all been waiting for."
-Nadene Kunz
