Awaken 1. Light Dancing in the Dark

   (3 reviews)

In a society where manifesting a strong gift is everything, how does one navigate without any power? Especially when you come from a family celebrated for theirs. Kalian Alauis, discouraged and frustrated stumbles into a strange alley one day and the entire trajectory of his life changes dramatically.

Kalian is suddenly dealing with a king, a queen, an obsession, an unwanted marriage, and the fight for his very life. On top of this, he finds himself enamored with a man who seems to always be out of reach.

Maybe being invisible was easier?

The story will include violence, strong language, uncomfortable adult situations including implied non-con, and also very consensual explicit content

I very much liked this story and look forward to future volumes of the series. This story follows a younger rich kid that is a disappointment to his parents due to a perceived flaw in his abilities. As the story builds the characters develop into those we cheer for and those we curse and on occasion the characters may change groups. I recommend this story as it does an excellent job of building characters,  developing society norms both good and bad and adding both crisis and relief as needed to enhance the plot.  Give it a read and let the author know what you think!!!!

Suspend disbelief like I did. Sleep and wake with these characters and discover the difference Majik can make. It’s not an easy life.

Epic read.

Turn to page one. The last page isn’t written…

I enjoyed the story.  The cast of characters are intriguing.  The plot thickens and you get further involved in the story.  More than once I found myself reading a 2am.
