song of echoes

Book One | Legacy of the Stones | Epic Fantasy Series
Song of Echoes paperback cover

Classic fantasy reborn — for those who long for epic tales of perilous quests, hidden legacies, and courage in the face of overwhelming odds...

* * *
An ancient evil stirs. The realms stand divided. Who will rise when all seems lost?


Toryn, a young man haunted by a legacy he fears may claim his life, is forced to flee his home. But when he's seized by a witch in the north, the truth of his destiny is revealed — a truth that terrifies him.

Elodi, called to lead her people after her father’s sudden death, is burdened by doubt. When a creature from the past storms the gates of Calerdorn, she finds the courage to face the rampaging hordes that seek to enslave her people. But this is only the beginning; a far greater horror looms, one that will test every ounce of her strength and resolve.

To stand against the darkness, Toryn and Elodi must awaken the power within and bind their strength as one. Yet mountains rise between them, and the leagues of the vast lands stretch long and perilous. As the shadows creep across the world, can they overcome their fears and unite before all they hold dear is lost?


Song of Echoes is the first book in a five-part epic fantasy series, Legacy of the Stones. With sweeping world-building, dark prophecies, and ancient, unforgiving magic, this is a classic high fantasy tale of adventure, loyalty, courage and sacrifice that will stay with you long after the final page.

Start reading today and lose yourself in this saga of epic battles, gruelling quests, and heroes who refuse to give up.

REVIEWS

"Song of Echoes is a rich fantasy adventure in the tradition of Prydain, Earthsea, and dare I say Middle-Earth. It strikes that balance that's hard to achieve but crucial in fantasy: beautiful world-building and a forward momentum plot."

"I really enjoyed the story. Our two leading protagonists, Toryn and Elodi, were very engaging and they both carried their stories well. Fans of high fantasy would thoroughly enjoy this one."
Full review at CBY Book Club

"If you are a fan of stories involving Magic, epic battles, ominous evil, and “must fight against the odds” type of plot this is the book for you."

THE BOOK COVER

I spent many hours (way too many) searching to find a suitable artist/ image for the cover. I eventually stumbled on the amazing work of Kentaro Kanamoto, and as soon as I saw his work, knew it was perfect for my series. I feel it captures the world of the Five Realms as I had imagined while writing the first book.
