Our sword is lost in Twilight...
In the mystical Kingdom of Mistledown, the beat of war drums echoes through ancient forests, heralding a gathering darkness. Raven warbands sow chaos, clan leaders vie for dominance, and an ancient foe seeks control over age-old deities. Within this turbulent setting, an inexperienced squirrel queen, a vixen monk, and her young marten follower find their lives entwined as they unravel the threads of fate. With newfound allies by their side, the trio races against time to unearth ancient secrets before the delicate balance of the world-and the Winter god himself-is irreversibly lost.
... and must be returned.
This captivating fusion of Redwall, A Song of Ice and Fire, The Lord of the Rings, and Dragon Age is a cozy yet thought-provoking novel for ages 9 and up, exploring our spiritual connection to nature and overcoming climate anxiety. It's a cinematically illustrative, nostalgic tale that delves into mythical world-building, lore, climate anxiety, community resilience, and spirituality.
The Loon and the Moon, a small indie publisher, is thrilled to release the first book in this extraordinary series in June 2024.
As the Fellian Empire positions its forces, Chief Gorrum of a massive raven tribe receives a divine call to align with them, initiating events that reshape Mistledown's destiny. Members of Sunderstone Abbey witness the symbolic transition from Autumn to Winter, unaware of the looming conflict. Queen Maewen grapples with leadership challenges, while Vespren, head of the Autumn sanctus, experiences a profound loss, setting her on a quest to renew what has faded. As war unfurls, the long-lost secrets of the Autumn Guard surface, prompting unlikely allies to embark on a perilous journey. Stormy visions, mysterious spirits, and a dark history converge, testing Mistledown's soul and the fragile equilibrium that sustains it.
