Produktbeschreibung
In a world struggling with political and religious differences, eighteen-year-old Arkrune-"Rune" to his friends-dreams of something greater than the quiet life in his small village of Locke. Trained by his stern but loving father, a renowned blacksmith and former warrior, Rune sets his sights on joining the famous monster fighting guild known as the Vanguard. When Rune embarks on his journey to the city of Hilden to pursue his destiny, he carries with him more than just a finely crafted sword-but also a mystery tied to his bloodline and the dormant power within him. Along the way, Rune forms bonds with battle-hardened warriors, fends off deadly attacks by monsters and men alike, and begins to uncover the hidden strengths he didn't know he possessed. However, life in the Vanguard is anything but simple. As Rune makes space for himself within the guild's ranks, he contends with seasoned warriors and fresh-faced recruits-including the fiery and skeptical Ven or the caring Teryn from his father's homeland-he finds himself at the center of events far greater than he imagined. With monsters stirring in the wilds, bandits behaving strangely, enigmatic beings beyond mortals, and the politics of men far more important than himself coming to blows, Rune discovers that the cost of adventure and being part of the Vanguard is high; possibly even higher than he is willing to pay. First Light is the opening volume in the Tales of the Vanguard: Rune Saga, blending action, heartfelt coming-of-age, and the slow unraveling of ancient truths in a sprawling epic fantasy adventure.
Autorenporträt
Verity¿Rose grew up in a blink and you'll miss it Indiana town where the school library doubled as an escape hatch. She wrote her first fantasy scenes at thirteen, lost the thread for a while, wrestling with undiagnosed ADHD and mental health potholes. She rediscovered her voice after becoming a mom and stumbling into a gaggle of online book nerds who egged her on. Armed with a social work degree from Ball¿State and a lifelong conviction that characters are as real as the hands on the keyboard, she now pours that people first empathy into stories that refuse to stay quiet.When she isn't tormenting her characters, Verity is probably reverse engineering a Korean street food recipe, sourcing single origin coffee beans from ethical roasters, or hoarding trash in Dragon Age or Skyrim. Her literary inspiration is equal parts Rick Riordan's mythic swagger, Suzanne Collins' high stakes heart, and John Flanagan's cozy camaraderie.Verity is raising her family (and her caffeine tolerance) amid Indiana cornfields before moving to the Pacific Northwest-she's always down to swap book recs, coffee tips, or preferred RPG builds.
