Book 1 in The Aylosian Chronicles

Dreams and Shadows

Originally published in 2015, the first book in this epic fantasy series has recently received a new cover and is now published by Aelurus.

Michael is a young man in modern England, minding his own business in the local library. Life turns on its head, however, when he has a powerful dream, full of symbols and foreshadowing.

After awakening the next morning, he is compelled to seek answers of his dream: a quest that soon draws him into the beautiful and magical land of Aylosia.

In an unfamiliar world with frightening creatures chasing him, threats against his life from all sides, and no way of knowing who he should trust; Michael must learn to face truths within himself in order to gain the power to save those he has grown to love.

With plot twists and turns, wisdom literature that will make you ponder, and a story that is both tragic and triumphant, Dreams and Shadows is a story that will linger in your mind long after you have finished reading.

Dreams and Shadows is a story of magical powers and strange creatures; of love, betrayal, despair, and ultimately hope.

“If you want a captivating read, an idea that’s refreshing, and invigorating, do read this. I don’t really write reviews, and when I do, it’s to inform other readers to stay away from horribly written books. With that said, I don’t believe you could possibly put this book down before the last page is completed.”
