Synopsis
There is magic, still, in Scotland. Elflaine, the fabled faerie realm, was supposed to be a myth. Ailia Danu certainly never expected her older sister, Elideh, to find it. After Elideh's disappearance into Elflaine, Ailia must uncover the long-buried history of the faeries, learn to control her newly-awakened magic, and navigate fabled creatures dragged straight out of Scottish lore. And above all else, Ailia must find her sister. Luckily, Reed, a handsome witch from Ailia's past, insists on accompanying her on her quest. Their plans are complicated by the sudden intrusion of a fae warrior, Callum, on his own mission to find three elusive artifacts. Can Ailia, Reed, and Callum overcome the obstacles keeping them from Elideh? Or will it be too late? The Elflaine Chronicles: Ballad of Dawn is Haley Hamilton's debut fantasy novel. It is set in modern-day Scotland and is inspired by faerie folklore. Follow her on Instagram @haley.h.writes for updates.
