Overview

Polaris demands lineage, obedience, and control. And Vanguard is the forge. The Outsider wants to stay. The Ranger wants to rise. Cast back to Earth as an infant, his magic bound and forgotten, he is returned years later to a world that never wanted him-and fears what it cannot control. Danica has trained her entire life to earn a place among the great houses. Without the blood of the Five, every step toward apprenticeship demands perfection, discipline, and sacrifice. At Vanguard, Pledges are forged into Paragons and tested by the Starlight Trials that promise glory and the coveted title of Apprentice. Yet behind the discipline, ancient houses maneuver for control, and the future of Polaris is shaped long before any trial is won. ​Between grueling training and stolen moments, something in Faber begins to shift-in ways Polaris will not accept. And Danica finds herself pulled toward a life she never allowed herself to want, with Faber becoming an unwelcome distraction she cannot afford-and cannot ignore.

Author Information

Angela Lombardo was raised on the wide-open farmland of Akron, Ohio, where muddy boots, barn cats, and the quiet hum of rural life shaped her childhood. A born tomboy with a fierce curiosity, she split her days between racing dirt bikes with her older brother, mastering the piano, and getting lost in comic book adventures with Spider-Man and Wonder Woman. A lifelong reader, Angela found herself enchanted by The Chronicles of Narnia, where the magic of hidden worlds and courageous hearts first sparked her love for storytelling. That love for storytelling eventually took root. One restless night in 2017, a single question-""Where is the mother?""-led Angela down a creative rabbit hole, sparking the beginning of what would become The Katori Chronicles. The five-book saga-The Half-Light, Mariana's Secret, Rayna's Sacrifice, The Traitor, and Keegan's Wrath-weaves mystery, sacrifice, and resilience into a rich fantasy world born of that single flash of inspiration.When she's not writing, Angela still feels most at home surrounded by nature, chasing quiet moments and wild ideas with equal passion.
