Goodreads Reviews

Legendborn meets A Deadly Education in this dark and thrilling debut fantasy romance.

When consumed by shadow, even the faintest light can be blinding...
When Alexis was a child, he had nightmares of falling, and disturbing hallucinations of the Shadow Man. Now, the hallucinations have gone, but the nightmares remain. His only comfort – the blue amulet that he’s had since before he can remember.
 
But when a trip to Stonehenge unites him with three others carrying similar gems, there is a strange affinity that Alexis cannot ignore. Particularly when they are plunged into a hidden world of power-wielding Elementals. The team discover that they are the chosen ones, destined to save the world from an eternal night - a darkness which conjures dangerously real memories for Alexis.
 
Alexis and his friends must venture on a perilous quest to defeat an adversary more ominous that they could possibly imagine. Facing tests of love, loyalty, Alexis learns that his past holds the key to a secret that could corrupt their mission and their lives.
 
A high-stakes, speculative romance, which masterfully weaves themes of mental health, depression, and found family. Perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo and Victoria Aveyard from TikTok and BookTok star @andydarcytheo_author.
