The Hollow North (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798254957034)

In the northern villages, people are vanishing. The faithful are dying. And something is moving through the darkness that no one can yet name.

Kaelen, an elven ranger with no interest in other people's problems, finds evidence that the disappearances aren't random - they're organized. Amori is an emberborn - a rare bloodline that runs hot with fire magic - and she must find a reclusive teacher before the power she carries destroys her from the inside out. A paladin commander and a young priestess are chasing mysterious outbreaks of sickness across the north, and the trail keeps getting worse.

None of them are looking for allies. They find each other anyway.

What they uncover is an apostate of the faith - a former servant of the Radiant Dawn who turned against everything he once held sacred. His plan is rooted in an alchemical evil that bends the will, hollows the mind, and opens the soul to something far darker. Everyone is a target. His endgame is the Temple itself.

The spiritual themes will feel familiar to fans of Tolkien and C.S. Lewis - light against darkness, faith under fire, the cost of turning away from what is good.

The Hollow North is unapologetically violent Christian fantasy - fast-moving, hard-hitting, and built on the conviction that darkness is real, faith matters, and evil deserves exactly what it gets.

Book One of the Chronicles of the Radiant Dawn.
