The Edge of Becoming Book Cover

"If we were meant to stay in one place, we would have been born
with roots instead of feet."

For centuries, the world has been without magic, and Eva has spent her life hiding the impossible power she carries. But rumors begin to spread, and a man wielding an old essence attacks her home. Her mother makes the only choice she can - send Eva away before the world comes hunting. Not to hide, but to live; to see the world beyond Nightwind’s walls, to meet people, to learn, to grow.

​

With her shape-shifting companion Luanna at her side, Eva sets out to slip under the radar. But the further she travels, the more dangerous the world becomes. Mercenaries and monsters cross her path, but so do friendly folks. And as she sets toward a distant desert town, she starts to wonder if she’s escaping danger...or walking straight into it.

Cooper Johnston, Canada

"This story feels swept right out of a much loved Dungeons and Dragons campaign. It's full of griping fight scenes, odd tavern folks, intriguing new monsters, and familiar but new magic systems!"
