About the book

A kingdom in danger, a relentless enemy, a young woman seeking to unite divided clans. Will she succeed in bringing the two colliding realms together in peace, or will her world fall under the rule of a brutal king?
Laela is a young Treedle woman. Enslaved by the Mergon clan, she needs to escape and fulfill her destiny by leading her people to safer times.

Mateo is the young Mergon prince. Defying his father, he helps Laela escape to safety. Relentlessly pursued by the king, they need to find a way to peace before it's too late.

When King Marl brings the threat of war to her home, Laela must draw on ancient prophecies, interplanetary allies, and her own rising spirit to become a leader of change. Can love and unity catalyze social change? Or will the shadows of the past prove insurmountable?

Arising is an emotional coming of age epic fantasy centered on individual and societal transformation. It weaves allegory and adventure, delivering a thought-provoking tale that is perfectly suited for fans of character-driven fantasy.
