THE ZOE GALAXY CHRONICLES
“Everything is so pointless,” Zoe cried.
“Your meaningless life is no accident. It’s evidence darkness is hunting you,” the Magus said.
Zoe wants to give up on life… until she finds herself without a body and questioning who she really is. Devastated by her father’s death and the crushing terminal cancer diagnosis of her best friend, she grapples with impossible questions about the meaning of life. But when she stumbles upon a mysterious – but deadly – wish-granting mist, she’s transported into the mythic realm of the Qualands: a place of flying children, bizarre magic, and interdimensional travel.
​
Desperate for answers, Zoe enrolls in an ancient mystery school... and she’s instantly drawn to magnetic and rebellious Magus Davin. Her dreams of a peaceful life are shattered when destiny calls her to master a strange new magic and prevent a world-ending cataclysm that will destroy everyone she loves.
​
Why is she the destined one?
​
She only wants to feel alive again after enduring so much pain… and she loathes playing the hero. But now the fate of the world rests on her shoulders.
​
Will she rise to the call of destiny? Or will the sinister plans of the Dark Lord leave her with nothing––broken, without love…and even dead.
The fragility of a destiny is its greatest strength.
This mystery spoken by the illumined one will be unveiled.
Vena Prichard, a formidable mage, is about to give birth to a daughter–the Destiny Seed of a benevolent galaxy carrying a special mission to empower millions. But ancestral fate and the Dragon Order that protects Vena have other nefarious plans.
​
In a world where magic is both a blessing and a curse, Vena finds herself torn between lives. A dark ruler holds sway over her allegiance, but the impending arrival of her unborn daughter ignites a fierce love, awakening a new source of strength.
Vena will stop at nothing to secure her daughter’s world-changing destiny. Which means saving her from an inevitable fate and merging with a dragon–an unbreakable bond. She embarks on a perilous quest, defying her oath to the Dragon Order, relinquishing her magical powers, and challenging the very foundations of her marriage.
​
Failure will shroud her family in darkness and destruction. Even death itself.
​
Is Vena's bold defiance the right choice, or will it unleash devastating retaliation?
