The Storykeeper's Daughter

For centuries, the kingdom of Rackmoure has stood against a darkness older than memory.

Its king bears impossible responsibilities. Ancient alliances are fraying. Everyone believes the greatest danger lies beyond the walls.

They're wrong.

Far from courts and kingdoms, Amry has spent her life preserving stories that no one else remembers. She is soon in a conflict that reaches back to the first age of the world, and discovers that memory itself may be the greatest weapon ever forged.

As old friends, reluctant heroes, scholars, sailors, warriors, and kings are drawn together, they begin to uncover a truth their enemies desperately want erased:

Some stories are forgotten by accident.

Others are stolen.

Epic in scope yet deeply human, The Storykeeper's Daughter is the opening novel of a sweeping fantasy series about hope, memory, found family, and the quiet choices that determine whether civilizations endure...or disappear.

The Darkness has awakened.

Kingdoms that stood for millennia begin to crack beneath its weight. Ancient enemies must become allies. Forgotten peoples emerge from legend. Every victory costs more than the last.

While Rackmoure fights to survive, Amry discovers that the answers they seek cannot be found in one kingdom alone. The fate of Mythrane depends upon peoples who have spent centuries apart and powers that remember a world before history forgot itself.

But the Darkness is changing.

It no longer seeks only to destroy.

It is learning how to corrupt hope itself.

As war spreads across the world and impossible sacrifices loom, Amry and her companions must decide whether the future will be built on fear...or on the stubborn belief that even the smallest light can be remembered.

The Light That Remembers expands the world of Mythrane into a sweeping epic of war, diplomacy, friendship, and courage, where the greatest victories are often the ones that preserve life instead of glory.

The Darkness has been driven back.

It has not been defeated.

The war has left kingdoms scarred, cities broken, and countless people searching for a way to rebuild lives that no longer resemble the ones they lost. As new alliances stretch across the sea and forgotten civilizations emerge from centuries of isolation, hope finally seems possible.

Then the world begins to tear open.

Ancient wounds spread through the land. Memory itself becomes a battlefield. And when everyone looks to Amry to save the world one more time, she refuses.

Because no civilization survives by sacrificing its heroes.

If the Light is to endure, it must belong to everyone.

As Mythrane faces its greatest test, kings, scholars, sailors, children, and ordinary people must learn that lasting hope cannot be carried by one extraordinary person. It must become something shared.

Profound, hopeful, and emotionally resonant, The Shard and Shadow brings The Storykeeper's Daughter trilogy to a conclusion that asks not how heroes die, but how a wounded world learns to live again.
