A planned romantasy trilogy

The Sundered Sky

Set on the continent of Ilvaren beneath a dying aurora, where divine light determines power, status, and belonging — and something long forbidden is beginning to stir in the shadows between the colors.

Spoiler-free world

Enter Ilvaren

  • Ilvaren

    The continent where every soul is marked by the color of a god.

  • Ourenhold

    The capital city and primary setting of Book One — crowded lower districts climbing toward a distant fortress, the Crown's home.

  • A society of light

    Status, power, and belonging are shaped by the "divine" color. 

  • The Veil

    A fading aurora arcing across the sky, dimmer with every generation. This is the Veil between the gods and the people. The aurora is the magic they give.

  • Privilege and poverty

    A widening divide between those the gods have chosen and those the dark claimed.

  • A forbidden power

    Something older than the colors, moving in the spaces between them.

  • The Gauntlet

    A dangerous public trial that can lift a life — or expose it.

  • A planned trilogy

    Three books, one sundering sky.
