Touched by Light
Born Touched by Light. Sentenced to die in flames.
Maia’s birth spells disaster. When a glassmaker discovers his infant daughter is marked by the forbidden power, everything he has built—including his infant son’s future—is threatened. He and his wife must decide: give her up to the flames of the Hand of Reason or flee to save her, causing them all to suffer. Sending her away might be their only hope.
Peryst de Arranu, a Touched soldier and monster hunter from the North, where being Touched by Light is a blessing and not a curse, takes his niece Maia as his daughter and begins a perilous journey across southern Ankisua.
To keep Maia safe, Peryst will join rebels, soldiers, and nobles who fight the Hand’s hatred and bigotry to keep the regime from burning their world to the ground.
From the darkest peril to the glimmers of hope, TOUCHED BY LIGHT weaves a tale of conviction, sacrifice, and the light that refuses to dim.
