Expected Publication Date: October 24th, 2023 

Genre: YA Dark Fantasy 

 

Not all monsters are evil. Some choose to do better. So, which one am I? Eighteen-year-old Adele believes she’s a monster because of her ability to infiltrate minds. She has come to terms with the fact that she may be alone for the rest of her life in order to avoid hurting others. For years, she’s been kept captive at Castle Forge, living comfortably under the watchful eye of a tyrant general. But after secretly witnessing her aunt heal someone with her blood, Adele knows the only way to get answers is to escape. Even if that means leaving behind the one person who’d shown her compassion during her captivity. She travels far to her childhood village, and while trying to uncover the mysteries of her past, she encounters the Shade. The same mysterious attackers who changed her life eight-years ago. The Shade have been raiding Adele’s childhood village, capturing its inhabitants for their queen, the ruler of the Under Realm. It isn’t long before Adele realizes these attackers possess similar powers, drawing more questions about who she is, where she comes from, and how she’s connected to these evil beings. After a childhood friend is captured and taken to the Under Realm, Adele must decide whether to stay and help the village or return to Castle Forge, where a dear friend might be in danger from the general’s wrath. With evil all around, Adele must choose who she wants to be and what her future holds.

This young-adult dark fantasy story promises a captivating and thrilling journey filled with action, suspense, and unexpected twists. Book one in the THREE SHADES TRILOGY explores themes of self-discovery, acceptance, and the power of choice as Adele navigates a dangerous medieval world to find her place in it.

Author Note: This book/series is young adult fiction and appropriate for 14+ years of age to read. It is considered "dark" fantasy, but appropriate enough for teens to read. There are mildly violent scenes, but nothing that falls into the "gore" or "horror" category. And the magic is more abilities that can either be used to help other or for torturous reasons. This is a story that takes place in a medieval fantasy world with arrows, swords, and other non-gun-like weapons. If you enjoy "dark" fantasy TV shows such as Wednesday, Vampire Diaries, or Shadow and Bone then you'll be okay with the level of "darkness" in Shade of Light.
