“At last, the time has come. You will be the first to witness my ultimate victory. Lift up your heads, for the Kingdom of Darkness is soon at hand. Thank you, for personally delivering to me the key to the Vault of Kings.”

With one final stone left to find, Sylas and his friends find themselves traversing through the deep and deadly snow of the frozen lands of Northrinde. The extreme conditions of the icy continent prove to be much more dangerous than anticipated, burying their once firm hope deep beneath the deathly cold of the snowy landscape. Tragedy strikes when half of Sylas’s companions mysteriously disappear, leading the others on a desperate mission to find their lost friends before it’s too late.

Jaandsun and Thren encounter more of their own mysteries as they master the power of the Void. Meanwhile, Maelos obtains a powerful new minion; one that threatens any chance at victory... one that commands the fierce and destructive power of Lightning. With only one option remaining, Jaandsun, Thren, and their small band of warriors find themselves confronting death head on, entering into the dark and forbidden world of Outer Darkness.

Strange visions and ominous dreams fill the minds of our heroes as they discover new worlds and encounter mysterious creatures. A looming nightmare threatens all hope, depicting the Dark Mage himself as victorious, holding the key to the ultimate power - the fully completed key to the Vault of Kings - within his terrible grasp. Will good conquer evil? Or will the Darkness that has reigned supreme for over a decade prove to be too powerful to overcome?

The five continents each contain their own mysteries and legends. Will the frozen lands of Northrinde prove as deadly as the harsh and dry dunes of The Scorched Lands?   

Immerse yourself in a mystical world of elemental magic and dark mysteries. Northrinde is book six of a seven book YA Fantasy series that is projected to be complete by December 2025. Follow Sylas and his companions as they search for all six of the ancient Elemental Stones of Power in their quest to forge the key to The Vault of Kings and obtain the mysterious power within to defeat the dark tyrant, Maelos. With five books already written and this sixth one being released now, you'll have plenty to read before the final installment is finished next year!

It is said that the talents and personality that you had in a Premortal world define which element speaks to you the strongest in the mortal world. A 'Natural Attunement' of sorts. Did you hunger and thirst for Knowledge? Perhaps at any cost? Darkness might call to you. Were you driven by Passion? Desiring to spread the ideals of justice and righteousness? Light might call to you. Did Tranquility and peace surround you? Calming your actions and enhancing your focus? Nature might call to you. Was Freedom your driving force? The freedom to do as you please and express yourself in artistic and musical ways? Air might call to you. Did your Will and desire to become the very best drive you to great heights? Fire might call to you. Was your Faith the most important aspect of your life? A belief in yourself, a bright and prosperous future, the elemental hierarchy of the Gods, or even that the energies of the cosmos would inevitably flow to its destined and designed end? Water might call to you.

Will you answer the call? Will you discover who you were and define who you will now become? Express your personality with a poker-style coin that was (digitally) hand painted by me, the author!
