Forging Silver into Stars

Ages 13 And Up

Betrayals, conspiracies, and dangerous desires abound in this addictive trilogy from New York Times bestselling author Brigid Kemmerer.

Magic is banned in Syhl Shallow. So when the new king wields it, the kingdom is divided. In the small waystation town of Briarlock, best friends Jax and Callyn care more about surviving the winter than magic’s return. When a stranger offers them gold in exchange for passing on a message, they agree—even if it means aiding in a plot to destroy the king.

A stop in Briarlock causes the King’s Courier Tycho to cross paths with Jax and sets off a series of unforeseen complications. Tycho, whose loyalty is already questioned in the increasingly tense royal court, can’t risk falling for a treasonouse blacksmith. But magic flares in unexpected places, and too much is broiling in Briarlock to be ignored…

This story of star-crossed love plays out among a backdrop of cutting betrayals and fiery rebellion.
