When Magic Wakes

By Carla Foord

A kingdom built on living light. A world threatened by a creeping frost. And a volatile power that could either save them all-or burn it to the ground.

Veldenya is a land of vibrant warmth and humming leylines, but its brilliant peace is beginning to fracture.

Elowyn doesn't fear the shadows creeping at the borders; she fears the explosive, untamed fire raging within her own chest. Chosen by a power she never asked for, she is a danger to everyone she loves, struggling to find harmony with an element that refuses to be caged. But as an ancient, icy threat stirs in the north, her volatile magic becomes Veldenya's ultimate shield.

She cannot tame the flame alone.

Enter Riven: a battle-worn exile from the austere, blackstone towers of Darethmoor. Whispering secrets of shadow and carrying the heavy scars of a shattered past, Riven offers Elowyn a dangerous new philosophy-to stop fighting her power through brute force, and instead learn the delicate art of persuasion.

As court paranoia deepens and dark secrets awaken within the Archive's Whispering Vaults, an undeniable, prophetic bond ignites between fire and shadow. With the world fracturing around them, Elowyn and Riven must master the harmony of their opposing forces before the oncoming frost snuffs out the realm's last light forever.
