What frightened her the most were the monsters living inside her head.
Living inside her.
In the mythical world of Tellus, Pax Silva awaits her Ortus day, when she will finally obtain her telekinetic powers. Shunned by her community for being too unpredictable, she longs for a life of adventure beyond her small forest home.
But when her village is attacked, and her Alchemist father and mother are taken, she is left with only cryptic clues and a mysterious golden amulet.
Convinced that the much-feared Supremo Gen are responsible for their capture, Pax and her childhood friend, Am, travel to Rubra to confront them, alongside Miles, a warrior with a bionic leg, and Venefica, an ancient witch Pax is uncertain she can trust.
With the Blood Moon due to rise, will Pax be able to save her parents before it's too late?
"A brilliant book packed with adventure and great characters, it's a like a treasure hunt in a world that is a cross between Harry Potter and Game of Thrones. I wouldn't normally read a fantasy book like this, but it had all the excitement and cliff hanging aspects of the thrillers I always enjoy. It's also a great length with short chapters, ideal for a sneaky read between train stops or when you should be going to bed!" - Amelie Bea Smith, child actress
"Get ready for your next fantasy obsession! I couldn't stop reading. Expertly crafted world building that instantly transported me into the world of Tellus, this is an adventure story at its finest. These characters will stay with you for a long time." - J S Strange, author of The Boyfriend Academy
"An imaginative story full of turns and vivid world building, ideal for readers just stepping into YA fantasy." - TikTok Reviewer @timtam_bookwriter
"With a love for riddles and hidden symbolism similar to Tolkien's, Tamara Price easily ignited nostalgic memories of lands I've never travelled to and quests I've yet to experience." - Netgalley Reviewer
"Cozy, magical, and beautifully diverse! It's a must-read for fans of Leigh Bardugo or Rick Riordan who enjoy stories about belonging, bravery, and self-discovery." - Netgalley Reviewer
