The Turning

Sundered Dominion

A Dark Fantasy Series

Ever wish you could hear thoughts?

Sienna can. And she’s sick of it. 

She knows everyone’s worst secrets. And she gets headaches. 

On the same day her town is destroyed by the evil Other enchantress Annali, she meets a mysterious knight whose thoughts are blocked to her. She naively chooses to trust him, not knowing that he is merely biding time. The very second she succumbs to her power, he will slit her throat.

Brennan enjoys killing Others. He’s good at it. Until the day his whole world changes and he meets a girl with gentle brown eyes. She doesn’t realize she carries a power which could reduce him to a pinkish smear. He doesn’t want to kill her, but he will if he has to. If he can.

They are soon being chased by members of Brennan’s own order, enraged by his betrayal. And Sienna’s power-enhancing staff is a beacon, luring greedy Others toward them like sharks to blood.

Meanwhile, Annali, a psychopathic Other, trained and lethal, is killing her way to the throne and will joyfully vivisect anyone who crosses her path. Sienna has sworn revenge against her.

If Sienna loses the battle to the Other in her head, she will forever be trapped as a spectator of her own body, watching her Other wreak unspeakable cruelties on her loved ones. But how can she defeat Annali without tapping into its strength? 

They find friend and foe, joy and pain. They battle grotesque feral mutants, Other greed, human stupidity, and a sand dragon. They must journey through increasingly brutal landscapes, gambling their lives on the hazy promise of freedom in a fabled land. 

What they will discover is beyond their imagination. But one thing never changes.

There is always someone left to kill.

Praise from Readers

“The narrative moves fast and teases you with just enough action, reflection, romance, friendship, care and downright nastiness to make you keep scrolling.”

Patricia C.

“A fabulous fast pace romp and just great fun.”

Mrs. J. Coates

“This book is awesome. I read it straight through because it was so captivating. I LOVED it. I am not a big fan of fantasy & am a really picky reader. I often do not finish a book because it is just lacking in heart. This one has so much heart!”

E. McCarty

“This is a fun fantasy novel. It’s got great characters, interesting beasts, ruthless villains, and they even fight a dragon in the desert.”

Kirk H.

“The story of Sienna leads a journey through a richly described and immersive world, with the stakes escalating to a powerful finale. Unlike most young adult lit, this book has depth with very sharp writing.”

Brennan should be dead.

Madness and nausea crawl through his reconstructed brain on sticky little cockroach feet. Since Sienna donned the crown, he only wants to keep her safe. But the elite Leaders and humans around him, vying for the throne, surpass him in every way. How can he fight such terrifying enemies while his mind is fragmenting and his body refuses to act?

Sienna is feeling the pressures of godhood. Every human in Idonia is relying on her. The land is dry and wasted, and the people are sick. There are assassins around every corner. Between keeping the feral Queen in her mind at bay, and the rising of her own trauma-induced anger, she can’t even tell who she is anymore. Despite all her weaknesses and flaws, nobody else can do this job. They need her. 

Grimbold has joined the front lines of the guardsmen’s revolution, seeking a place among his people. But the guardsmen are more complex and fragile than he expected, and he gets tangled up in their skepticism and fear. If he can’t convince them to free their minds and accept not just him, but themselves, they will all die in the upcoming battle.

Lastly, there is Kabos, agent of chaos. This man fears neither Leader nor human.

And he knows exactly how to kill an Empress. 

The future of humanity is at stake. They have the power to change this world… but only if they can unearth Idonia’s deadly secrets in time.
