The Broken Heir

The Broken Heir is the first novel in the Harvest of Shadows saga, a dark fantasy set in the ancient realm of Avaloria.

In a world shaped by forgotten wars and older mysteries, the great capital of Runeheim stands as a monument to a past few truly understand. Beneath its streets lie ruins older than the kingdom itself, and beyond its walls stretch lands filled with abandoned roads, silent monasteries, and cities that history has tried to forget.

What begins as a quiet search for answers soon leads far beyond the boundaries of ordinary life. Ancient temples emerge from the wilderness. The mines of Halveth reveal more than iron buried beneath the earth. And old forces-older than the kingdoms that now rule the land-begin to stir once more.

As the truth behind these forgotten places slowly comes to light, those who seek it discover that the past was never truly buried. Some truths were hidden because they were dangerous. Others were hidden because the world was never meant to understand them.

Set against a landscape of ruined cities, distant trade routes, and ancient mountains, The Broken Heir begins a story that explores grief, memory, and the fragile boundaries between the living world and the forces that move beneath it.

This is the beginning of the Harvest of Shadows saga.
