Echoes of Light (The Luminous Legend Book 1)

When a malevolent force descends upon the kingdom of Tordale, young Alamor is called to seek out the most sacred source of magic ever known—the Radiant Gems. To acquire them, he needs to tap into the dormant magic within his spirit. It is an endeavor that he has failed at once before, and that failure has haunted him ever since. But if Tordale is to know peace again, Alamor must overcome all of the doubts and fears that have cast his life into turmoil. He will journey to all corners of the realm—Sleekleaf Forest, the Arid Reaches, the Tower Mountains—while meeting creatures who wish to help his cause, and monsters who will try to end it. Along the way, he may discover that there is an even greater power than magic in the world.
