A Gripping Tale of Identity, Magic, and Unyielding Courage…
Bryce’s series opener in the Tenebria series plunges readers into a world where every shadow conceals a struggle for identity and survival. The sun god’s victory ushers in the Dominion, exiling demonic magic to frozen wastelands. Makar, after 40 years in exile, receives a deadly gift from the defeated demon. Dominion interrogator Faina must uncover a brewing conspiracy while maintaining fragile peace. As darkness stirs, can she save their world without being consumed by it? Bryce’s prose is sharp and immersive, capturing a world where light and shadow mirror the characters’ struggles. He skillfully weaves in fantasy elements to elevate the tension, pushing Makar to face his doubts and the pressures of the Tenebrian Exam. He portrays Makar’s anxiety with authenticity. His interactions with Faina, the empathetic yet stern Truthseer, deepen the narrative, highlighting the delicate balance between compassion and perfection in a world that doesn’t tolerate failure. The pacing is precise, blending intense action with reflective moments that allow the story’s emotional depth to shine. An enthralling start to an exciting new series.
