The Legacy Of The Lightbearer: A Young Adult Epic Fantasy Adventure of Prophecy, Magic, and Destiny (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781069489913)

A coming-of-age fantasy and epic fantasy full of magic, destiny, and the courage to face the darkness within.

Jake thought he was just an ordinary sixteen-year-old. Quiet. Strong. Haunted by strange dreams and the ache of an absent father. But everything changes when a mysterious ring left behind by his father draws him into a world he never imagined, a world where shadows rule, and a forgotten legacy waits to be claimed.

Transported to the war-torn land of Nitivel, Jake discovers a kingdom enslaved by the Black King, Athan and his Red Soldiers. Villages burn. Magic is forbidden. Hope is nearly extinct. Yet within Jake stirs a power older than the stars, one that marks him as heir to a lost royal bloodline known as the Leog.

As Jake journeys across cursed forests and crumbling cities, he's drawn into a resistance of warriors, mages, and unlikely allies. Among them is Liana, a fierce girl whose spirit challenges him. Dimir, a brooding warrior with secrets of his own. And Karin, a red-eyed mystery who sees too much. But trust is dangerous, and the line between enemy and friend blurs.

With war looming, Jake must face the truth: he is not only a boy with a legacy, he may be the last hope Nitivel has left.

But light comes at a cost.

Perfect for fans of Eragon, Percy Jackson and The Wheel of Time

Dive into a richly imagined world where every choice matters, the past haunts the present, and even the brightest flame casts a shadow.
