Birth of The Mortokai (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781838038441)

Daniel Welsh was born different-and to Daniel, to be different means to be alone. But what if he's wrong?

Born an albino with a photographic memory, Daniel Welsh never expected to fit in. Yet, when he is approached by Trinity-a young girl who definitely isn't human-she reveals a whole new world where he might just belong. Ariest is a place where his features aren't a disability or the mark of a freak, but rather a trait of powerful mages born of human-faerie unions. His father is a renowned war hero and swordsman, his mother is a human doctor, and that makes him a powerful mage that'll tip the scales. Magic is real-and so is the threat it brings.

Trinity and her father, a battle mage, aren't the only ones to have discovered Daniel and his gifts hidden in the human realm.

The Shade have awakened.

Enemies to the fae realm long thought dead have been lying in wait for their moment to strike. Young mages like Daniel are the perfect morsel for their starving appetites and they start their killing spree without delay with the nearest unsuspecting mage boy. Daniel cannot sit idly by while monsters take innocent lives, so he will embrace a destiny he is only just beginning to understand... even if it means losing a life that's finally worth living.
