Waterstone: A War of Light and Shadow (Book 1)

Revised Content:

An ancient evil awakens, casting a menacing shadow over the land. Yet, a trio of unlikely heroes emerges, determined to stand and fight against the impending darkness.

Ronan, a young man from a quaint town, dreams of venturing beyond the thick stone walls that confine him. Sadly, he lacks the magical prowess of onda, a force that grants others the freedom to explore the wild. Trapped within the very walls that shield him from the night's terrors, Ronan's confinement becomes a prison of its own.

In the capital of Lindra, Count Jamie Pierce is coerced into stealing an ancient book. As he plans the heist, he uncovers a disturbing truth about the state of his homeland. An ancient foe is poised to attack, yet no one seems to heed the impending threat. The thief, who has never stood for a cause greater than himself, now faces a choice: will he fight or flee?

Laran, a sumar – one of the select warriors who roam the wilderness to protect the citizens behind their impenetrable walls – feels more at home amidst the trees and stars than with the people he is sworn to defend. However, when he stumbles upon a new breed of demon, more cunning than any he has faced before, Laran must learn to trust the very humans he has long despised.

As dark forces gather quietly around our heroes, fate intervenes, bringing Ronan, Jamie, and Laran together for a task that will carry them across their duchy and into the heart of a malevolent enemy. This epic fantasy adventure, from bestselling author Ryan Kirk, promises to captivate readers as the trio navigate the challenges that lie ahead.
