Aspects of Aelda Duology

Fantasy

[Series Description]


Book 1: Catalyst 

Street magician Mavrin Leed doesn’t believe in what he can’t see or prove; his purpose left behind, he roams Aelda to put on a good show. Eyasu Temergon, labeled a heretic for theories they once shared, continues a quest for evidence that monsters exist. And in northern Farglade, former soldier Deyeri Renn tries to protect her adopted city from itself, and a dangerous new interest in old myths.

In the broken world of Aelda, held together by Winds and the Aspects’ will, three old friends must unpack the secret histories that once drove them apart.

Book 2: Castoff

Six months after saving her city from destruction, Deyeri Renn is outrunning leadership she doesn’t trust herself to take on. Mavrin Leed chases secret knowledge beyond the business of a mere street magician, wondering where his friend Eyasu Temergon has gone, and how much his devotion to the god-like Aspects endangers him this time. All while the Raw wait to be freed from their prison—the extent of their patience unknown.

And as the Highest Voices work to silence the gods  who keep Aelda safe, dangerous truths at the edge of the world still find their way to light.
