The night the storm came to Larkhollow, Iris Hale left her Guardian at the professor's lab. One night, she promised him. First light.
By morning, every Guardian in the village was gone.
The Umbral Choir is draining the light of bonded creatures to shatter a thousand-year seal - and wake the fossil god a Hero gave everything to bury. Volt, Iris's electric fox, is the strongest key they have ever stolen.
Armed with a capture glove, a knife she doesn't know how to use, and a promise she refuses to break, Iris hunts the Choir south - base by base - gathering a team of wild Guardians and an infuriating tracker whose secrets run as deep as the ruins ahead.
But the mountain is already cracking. And what waits at the fifth base will break more than the seal.
Book One of The Hollow Light Saga - a fast-paced adventure about bonds that hold, lights that refuse to go out, and the difference between what's taken and what's given.
Start the saga today - the wall is already cracking.
