In a world of flight, he was born wingless.
But that’s the least of his problems.
Since being orphaned at a young age, wingless sprite Asher Songfeather has been sure of one thing: Bat sprites aren’t to be trusted. The fact that his own mother was one is something Asher does his best to forget.
But when his adoptive sister Carinen falls deathly ill, he’ll risk anything to save her—even if it means striking a bargain with a mysterious Bat sprite newcomer. The deal sends Asher on a perilous quest into the heart of the Bat Colony itself, where nothing is as it first appears. Saving his sister will require more than just courage and wits. It will take trust, too.
And Asher will have to rethink everything he knows about Bat sprites—including himself.
Asher's Journey Continues in:
Book 2 of the Wingless Cycle
Coming June 2025
They can’t stop what’s coming.
Wingless sprite Asher Songfeather is adjusting to life in the Bat Colony. To atone for his role in the recent poisoning, he frees a Dragonfly slave girl and vows to reunite her with her sister. But her sister has joined forces with rebel leader Ryn.
Halfwing Siobhan Eirwensa is struggling to reconcile the past with her newfound loyalties. When she learns her father is fighting for his life as a captive of the Arena, she is determined to rescue him. But she has much to learn about trust.
As Asher and Siobhan work toward solutions, they uncover Ryn’s newest plan—one that will lead to full-blown civil war if he isn’t stopped. They’re running out of time.
And beneath it all lurks an unforeseen threat that will shatter life as they know it.
