Receive from above or take from below, Light versus Dark, you reap what you sow. With her newly acquired Gift burning inside her, Solyana Marusda leads her group through the Mothmar snow in search of the prophecy’s secrets. But when they stumble upon the city of Takanah, they find themselves surrounded by the Taka Reu and all it threatens to unleash. Desperate for answers, Solyana finds herself on a path paved with the sacrifices of others—sacrifices that make her wonder whether she is the savior or the destruction of her people… In the wake of carnage, nearly everything Pallah Bogson holds dear has slipped through her fingers. With only a rumor of hope left to cling to, she sets out in search of the truth that promises a place of belonging. But as her connection to the Mother Below grows, so too does the influence of forces beyond her control—and when Pallah finds herself the instrument of chaos, there is no way of telling what is or isn’t her own will. All the while, someone is watching, waiting—with more sinister schemes than either girl can know. A story of friendship, family, and the choices that shape us. Dive into the world of Mothmar and experience magic, animal companionship, and adventure layered through time and dipped in mystery.

Amanda Auler
Amanda Auler
Author · 3 books
A mother by day and writer by spare moment, Amanda Auler is getting used to calling herself a Young Adult fantasy fiction author. At twenty-one she made a goal to be published by thirty and her debut novel, Daughter of the Sun, will launch precisely one year and two weeks before her thirtieth birthday. Inspired by Patrick Rothfuss, Brandon Sanderson and Juliet Marillier (to name a few), Amanda writes stories that explore emotional growth and personal resilience. When she’s not at her laptop, Amanda can be found roasting coffee in her garage (usually with a book in hand), improving her ASL fluency and trying to keep up with her three growing boys. She and her husband live in central North Carolina where they stay up too late watching Top Chef and eating fancy ramen.
