"A breath lingers. It swallows deep. A satisfied smile returning to sleep. A morning ritual not undone for a hundred years has kept pacified The Great One. Her brimstone breath buried under darkness. Powerful majesty tempered by sloth and sacrifice. Worshipped and feared by the few who know of her, a world unaware strewn about. But if she were to wake... If she were to stir..." Lisa and Kari Williams have grown up affluent in the magical city of Adayr, but when they uncover a terrible hidden evil they are forced to make a decision: remain quiet and enjoy their idyllic lives, or try to change the world...and risk losing everything. S. Taylor's debut fantasy novella is 19,000 words of magic, mystery, betrayal, hope, and humour!

But only a few can be heard above the clattering noise of life, and fewer still can take the reins and guide destiny itself. Take hold of destiny, and pick up S. Taylor's debut novella today!
