Facing Shadows: Book one of the Lost Scion series

#1 Ranking in Teen and Young Adult Epic Fantasy eBooks! Dangerous chasms. Deadly monsters. Treacherous powerplays. And only a handful of young Denizens can save their village from utter ruin. "We’re more than our worst impulses, more than the shadows we face." When Evaya, a 16-year-old warrior, stumbles into one of the mysterious chasms that have suddenly appeared near her remote island village, she’s determined to find what’s causing them before another one destroys them all. If only it were that simple. Her concerns are ignored by her village’s Elders who are distracted by the decades-long feud between warriors and hunters—a conflict that has Evaya questioning which side she should be on. And a desperate power-play made by the volatile Elder warrior, Delcrom, could unravel any hope of unity. Meanwhile, a prophesy suggests that pairing Evaya with the flawless young hunter, Rykas, would finally end the village feud. But she has developed complicated feelings for Aldric, a brooding cook who’s fallen hard for her. The only thing Aldric wants more than Evaya is to defeat his father, Delcrom, who intends to pair Evaya with Valgrun, a villainous young warrior who will stop at nothing to claim her. Evaya must unite her people and confront the mystery of the chasms before it’s too late. But can she save them without sacrificing her heart? This multiple-POV epic has worldbuilding and character depth that echoes Game of Thrones but aged down to be suitable for a YA audience while holding strong appeal for adult readers. It features never-before-seen monsters, action sequences to die for, a hint of romance, and a style that makes readers immediately reach for the next book in the series.
