Synopsis
The journey begins
Ash was never meant to be a hero. He is a kitchen slave with strange music filling his head and no understanding of what it wants from him.
When his best friend Kep’s life is threatened, Ash is forced to act. The two flee the only home they have ever known and cross a dangerous wilderness, pursued by Kep’s relentless tracker and an evil they cannot yet name.
As their enemies draw closer, the mystery of the Taelstone deepens. Ash’s connection to the Song grows stronger, but every use of its power carries a cost. Before the journey is over, it may claim his life.
Who it is for. Taelstone is the first book in an adventure fantasy series for adults and readers aged 15 and over. It is a strong starting point for readers who enjoy loyal friendships, dangerous magic, pursuit, mystery and characters who must become braver than they believe themselves to be.
