The house looks normal, but it isn’t. Some children are praised, others blamed. Some words stay unspoken, some hurt more than any shout. One girl notices the unfairness, the quiet anger, the tension in every corner. She begins to see things clearly. Nothing is simple, and nothing is as it seems.
Escape into a dark forest, where every child of twelve must unlock their elemental gifts to survive the trials within... Evalina and Tevaun aren't like most other kids. They can't throw fire when they're angry, conjure illusions from thin air, or freeze people they don't like with an icy stare. You know, the sort of things everyone else their age can do. No, their gifts are far more dangerous. And that's precisely why their parents decided to lock them away somewhere safe. They never imagined the Ildarwood would one day intervene on their behalf... Finally given the chance to escape, Evalina and Tevaun find themselves hunted by soul-stealing creatures at every turn. Chased ever deeper into the Ildarwood, they must seek out new allies, battle terrifying threats, and find some way to secure a brighter future before their tragic fates are locked in stone. Immerse yourself in a magical world with diverse cultures and rich lore. Discover your own elemental alignment alongside Evalina and Tevaun. And find out why fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender, Harry Potter, and The Hunger Games are falling in love with this inspirational new series!Ver libro
