Blight and Starlight

An epic fantasy trilogy about three girls, two secrets, and one unwanted bond.

Military service is compulsory in the four surviving domains of a declining, but extraordinary enclave. Eighteen-year-olds march to the front lines to save what remains—some burning to fight, others desperate to avoid it.

Aramus Mastri has never met a fight she can't win or an obstacle she can't break—except for unlocking the rings of power that sit on her hands. Tazen Gin, collared and cursed, has never met a fight she hasn't lost. Isini Farren, desperate to hide forbidden powers, faints at the sight of blood.

Prodigy, Pariah, Pretender.

Forced together, they train inside the dangerously shifting universe of an illuminated manuscript, where working together means sacrifice, rivalries spell death, and every secret demands retribution.

For readers who love power trios and “ride or die” female friendships, from Charmed to KPop Demon Hunters, Girl Musketeers and Powerpuff Girls.

Same world as the Ren Crown series, but set just before the Second Layer gets crafted in the way Ren knows, with the world magic dynamics altered accordingly. It also shares a world with the Scepters Trilogy. Any of the series can be read first or alone.
