Overview
Memory is magic, but it can also be a weapon. When Aisling, a village girl with no taste for destiny, inherits the Medallion of the Fianna, she awakens an ancient war and an enemy older than fire. In the land of Mórradún, whispers of betrayal stir broken oaths, and long-forgotten legends begin to rise. At her side stand Elara, a wanderer who trusts nothing; Calla, a healer scarred by flame; and Ronan, a warrior haunted by loss. Together, these unlikely companions must decide whether fractured souls can still rise-and whether shattered legends can be reforged in fire. Blending Celtic myth, flawed heroes, and found family forged in battle, Awakening is an epic fantasy where memory itself is magic, and the fate of a world rests on those scarred enough to fight for it. \Why Readers Are Loving Awakening: ""A thrilling and compelling story full of adventure, suspense, magic, and purpose."" - ★★★★★ LitPick ""The friendships, doubts, and bravery of the Fianna felt real and powerful."" - ★★★★★ Readers' Favorite ""A Celtic-inspired epic where memory is magic and legends rise in fire."" - ★★★★☆ NewInBooks Perfect for Readers Who Love: Found family forged in fire Celtic-inspired fantasy Mythic stakes, oaths, and shadows Scarred heroes who still rise Genre: Epic Fantasy / Mythic Fiction Series: Book One of The Fianna Chronicles ✨ Step into the fire.
