A group, steady and alert, quietly trek through the forest at the base of the mountain pass that protects their city. The spirits pull the Ambient heart of Celuthia around them like a shroud of shadows, their eyes all enhanced with the sight of an owl in the night. A branch rustles, a twig snaps behind a tree ahead, and before their heads can turn toward the sound, the peace is shattered by a cackle of monstrous joy and a searing flash.
​
Sam has dedicated his life to teaching young people about the world and their connection to the Ambience, where they have the power to affect change wrought by their will. But outside the walls of his home, people are being twisted into puppets of a malevolent will.
​
Confronted with loss and a legacy of vengeance that could consume everything, Sam fights both aggressors and his dwindling humanity.
​
Will the world remember his actions to save, or destroy?
The downfall of a society takes time. Many small moments undermine the stability of established norms, and make the people question those in power.
But it can all start with one person. A person that looks too closely at the secrets buried in history. Or theories about the fundamental nature of existence. And when that person can change the fabric of the world with a thought, the results can be catastrophic.
Join a young man named Sam as he comes into his power. As he discovers that threats to everything he knows can spring from opening the wrong book.
Immortality is a burden. Especially when it's tied to a grand destiny that can't be realized.
Sam has been alone since his society was destroyed by a xenophobic maniac. She took everything from him, and left a dangerous legacy to be passed along through generations of what was left of his people.
He is the last of the Ambient.
The magic the Ambient wield fades with every decade that passes. Sam slowly becomes aware that this has affected the entire world. But other parts of the world still have strength. And Sam finds that, once again, he is the only one who can stand up to it.
On behalf of the innocent people who know nothing of the danger they're in. And the future of the Ambient.
The Debut Novel in The Ambience Series
The Ambience is her strength, and her curse.
​
The nation of Trylia believes that the gift, a force that can alter the world through the intent of the person who wields it, is a myth. The stuff of children’s tales, brought to life only in the imagination.
For Lila, separated from a life she was too young to remember, it’s a confusing power that has set her apart from the family she found. And she is only just beginning to understand it when her home and family are destroyed, and she is captured.
To escape, she unleashes the gift in a destructive wave that also forces a man she doesn’t trust to keep them alive. Bryn won’t survive unless Lila does, and they must flee the wrath of the captors still pursuing her. If they can’t find a way to work together, Lila won’t live long enough to learn more about the gift.
As Lila finds her strength, the gift inside her grows. Unless she can control it, she may be a greater danger than the one at her heels.
