Why Read This?The one-sentence sell. What do you get for showing up to this book, even when it's hard?

A cathartic journey of trust rebuilding and self-discovery in a mesmerizing dream world.

Synopsis

Still reeling from the betrayal of someone she once trusted, Ella returns to the Astral Realm only to discover two years have passed in her absence. War looms over them like a reaper, and the realm’s once-vibrant lands are now decaying under a dark shadow. With the weight of destiny on her shoulders, Ella must claim her rightful place, seek the mythical water stone to vanquish the Demon King, or find a way to heal the dying land. Joined by Cole, Rhea, Ian, and new allies, their journey leads them to Tyndarus, the water kingdom, in search of refuge and aid. But in a world riddled with secrets and betrayal, safety may be the deadliest illusion of all.
