With 5-starred reviews, Jean DiFalco's young adult fantasy debut brings to life a world filled with magic, Roamers, and a mysterious fog cloaking dangers untold.
This coming of age story set in a gaslamp universe is perfect for fans of Charlie N. Holmberg's Paper Magician and Erin Morgenstern's The Night Circus.
Sixteen-year-old Solé Covari has no real reason to believe her father, disappeared into Alterra's Fog nearly a decade ago, is somewhere out there alive. There's been no sign of him. And everyone knows, those lost in the mists rarely return.
Unfortunately, getting her mother to move forward and let go has proven impossible. She spends all her time consulting Ayir, Alesora and Avance for some small trace of him, all but ignoring Solé, and her little sister Dora. Worse still, Maman suffers a strange malady that makes her eyes glow with yellow light.
And as much as Solé hates keeping secrets, she knows no one must find out about Maman's condition--just like the forbidden gift her daughters were born with, some things must be kept under wraps.
Because if someone were to find out what the Covari sisters can do, Solé and Dora could end up banished or worse.
For her family, there's not much Solé wouldn't do--even if it means facing the Fog alone, and finally embracing the magick she's hidden her entire life. Could a power that's never brought her anything but grief truly be her saving grace?
★★★★"The story is thrilling, an adventure with bad guys and magic stuff, but all that is in service to the emotional stakes. Sole's trek through the story is grueling and heart-rending." -Joe Crowe, Author, Blackthorn: Thunder on Mars
★★★★★"Ms. DiFalco weaves this world called Alterra like a beautiful tapestry that comes to life as the tale is told. She has captured the heart of this young teenager, Solé, who longs to reunite her family while taking on the responsibilities of a seer." -Elizabeth Simons, Editor, Read.Learn.Write
★★★★★"The mystery and twist leave you wanting more. Which is why I'm getting ready to read the second book".I don't want to spoil it by telling you more." -Pam LaPorte, Amazon Reviewer
★★★★"I don't often read fantasy, but this book could have me dipping into it more often. Jean DiFalco built a fascinating, rich world and it's not so intense like some fantasy books that turn me off by getting too bogged down in detail. Beautifully written and fires up the imagination." -Michelle Ham, Author, Sway
★★★★★"A great start to a new series. A world where Roamers and ordinary folk meet at fairs. A world that is surrounded by Fog that harbors danger to all who venture into it. The heroines (I think of both girls as that) are plucky and outspoken with powers of their ancient ancestors." -Krystyna, Amazon Reviewer
★★★★★"Great read! An exciting and interesting story mixed with the importance of travel, dreaming, and imagination! I just finished the second book...can't wait for the 3rd!!" -Amazon Reviewer
