    About this ebook

    Who is he? Where did he come from? And why does everyone want him dead? The story of a darkling child and the powerful forces who want his hide. A dark tale of sorcery and salvation. You won't want to miss it.

    ALEXANDRE STONE resides in a beautiful beachside town on the central coast of California, within a stone's throw of the wild Pacific. When not poring over ancient texts and talking to her house spirits, she enjoys reading J.K. Rowling, Neil Gaiman, China Miéville, Larry Correia, and other works of science fiction and fantasy. On the weekends, she enjoys tending her herb garden and treadling her spinning wheel, but during the week, she spends her time writing in coffee shops. She shares her home with her husband and a handful of furry, judgemental felines.
