Overview

Yasir has always felt he was meant for more.he has no idea how much. A native son of the Island Republic of Kindara, he is ripped from his homeland as a small boy, escaping an invasion that decimated his family. For the past decade, he has been living with his uncle in the small town of Oakwood Grove, Georgia, while dealing with life as an outsider-in more ways than one. All that would change over the course of a few weeks, thanks to a series of unfortunate incidents that brings Yasir into the spotlight, complete with new friends, the affections of a girl who he swore didn't know he existed-and enemies. He has been told all his life that he must hide in plain sight, with no reasonable explanation, only vague references to a reckoning, should he be found. But what no one knows-including Yasir himself-is that the horrors of that tragic event have awakened something that would change the course of his life forever. With the help of a Kindaran priestess, he has the chance to find out who he truly is, and why he is so important. But first.he has to get through high school.

I could hear the writing style while I was reading and the writing style is one that read quickly."" -Books.Pups.Tea ""Shakir has a way with YA/Fantasy that is second to none. He leaves no stone unturned from character development, to building a world that belongs on the map, you can't help but turn the pages as Yasir's journey comes full circle in his quest to find his identity. This was an enjoyable read that kept me engrossed until the very end. I look forward to the next book in this series.."" -Christine Pauls, Author ""I loved the story, the world building and meeting the different characters. I felt completely immersed in the story and couldn't stop reading it."" -Inked the Page ""This is a great fantasy adventure story. You know the Chosen trope and all that amazing jazz I really enjoyed this book!"" -Enchanted Reads24 ""I think this one is going to be a giant hit with reluctant readers as well as finally having more paranormal fantasy stories for guys. Working at the bookstore you don't find a lot of these kinds of books in that YA section. It's all about the girls. So this was a burst of fresh air that the genre needed. The book was well paced and fun."" -Crossroads Reviews ""It was well worth it with the interesting world building, with rich mythology."" -Eriko Reads ""I've never thought I would enjoy a YA book as I did this one. The story felt like I was back in high school with my fellow classmates who kept up with drama and caused issues throughout school for some people."" -Sherise B, NetGalley ""This book is a great start to what I imagine is going to be an epic series. I have no doubt that my high school students will absolutely love this book and I cannot wait to grab a copy for my classroom."" -The Cozy Wolf ""Wow! This book exceeds expectations! Five stars!

His name is Shakir Rashaan. Have you ever read a book and felt homesick for the characters you've just met? Have you ever gone on a journey and been so wasted by the end and yet you hunger for more? Neverwraith is that book."" -Stephanie F, NetGalley ""Neverwraith not only delivers on its promise to be an explosive and innovative paranormal story, but it also touches on themes of self-discovery, resilience, and the realization of one's true potential. The story seamlessly blends elements of Bel-Air's edge, wit and charm with the intrigue of Cloak & Dagger. Rashaan's debut YA novel skillfully combines the paranormal elements of Yasir's shifting powers with the challenges and relatable struggles of being a teenager in an unfamiliar environment. This is a promising start to a thrilling series that will leave readers eagerly anticipating the next installment."" -Naleighna Kai, Author
