About This Book
Reach for this book when your teenager is navigating the friction between their family legacy and their personal truth. It is particularly resonant for young adults who feel misunderstood by their siblings or are struggling to find where they belong in a complicated family history. The story follows Bek Rowe as he tries to rescue his sister, the Ilse Witch, from a path of vengeance while facing a terrifying ancient machine called Antrax that devours human souls. While this is a high-fantasy adventure filled with airships and magic, the core is a psychological exploration of redemption and the power of memory. It deals with the weight of inherited secrets and the courage required to offer forgiveness to someone who has caused harm. For parents, it provides a bridge to discuss how our past does not have to dictate our future, all within a fast-paced, imaginative world suitable for mature middle schoolers and high schoolers.
