The Myriad Chronicles: Book I, The Reader

As with Sarah Benson’s Born of Shadow, our featured book this time around has a great ensemble cast of characters, and it’s easy to have multiple favorites.

Even though the target market is Middle Grade, the colorful and engaging characters, intriguing plot lines, and immersive, beautifully described world make for a story that I heartily recommend for older audiences as well.
