To save himself from a horrible fate, Irigiim chooses a path he never thought he would, but will his bond to the wild-natured Rayle be worth the choice? Sun Glimmer is not so much a haven as perdition for Castell, and the itch to fight keeps him restless, but he has choices to make. Now he needs to decide which one is the right one. Irigiim is part of a dwindling species, noble Beasts that roam the raw lands of the Shade Realm. His majestic form, however, is no salvation against the aberrant magicians in the Sun Realm who are using his kind to control others. To keep his kind alive, Irigiim bonds with a young Isokanii royal to prevent suffering the same fate as his sire. Rayle keeps him safe from the Sun Dwellers, but their tumultuous relationship does little to provide the peace and stability he craves. Rayle’s rambunctious and adventurous spirit is so much like that of a pup, he is hesitant to fully trust his new human partner. All he desires is to avoid a caustic death, but the anxiety created by monitoring his bond partner might be more than he bargained for. Castell has pacifist parents to thank for his peaceful and worry-free life. It is also thanks to them that he is eager to leave. Every day spent mining Sun Crystals is another day he wishes he were elsewhere. Gifted with weather magic, he knows he could be more helpful on the front lines of the war, rather than living a banal life chiseling rock and stone. The problem? Leaving would break his parent’s hearts, but he knows he can no longer remain a neutral party to the war. Armed with his conviction, Castell leaves the only home he’s ever known to face a turmoil he’s never known. Will Irigiim find the peace he craves or be forced to live in disquiet? Will Castell finally do something worthwhile with his magic? Break into the Broken Realms with this prequel novella! Discover magic, adventure, found family, and the power of choice.

Terren and Kiira survived Zerrec’s scheme. They press forward in their Lundemai only to face more struggles, and things intensify as uncovering the truth becomes top priority. Kiira endured her old mentor, but not without some characterizing scars. All she wants is to prove she’s worthy. Left alone in Klynotia while Terren obeys King Grayten’s directives; Kiira does the very thing Terren asked her not to do, and the information she learns may not be worth the price that has to be paid. Terren can finally breathe easily, knowing his wife and Bear are safe. Of course, being married to Kiira means things don’t go as planned. If that isn’t enough to handle, Grayten is not as he remembers, and Terren realizes it will take more than subterfuge to free his people, but to defeat a tyrant, he might have to become one. In Klynotia, Zerrec made a strategic move to make his enemies his pawns, but his years in the Aria Bells softened his memory to the pleasing sensation of power. Men jump at his command, and the sway he holds over the masses means he can have more than just revenge. Set in parallel worlds, Shadow’s Son is the second record in the Broken Realms Chronicle.
