Sneak Peek
Sixteen-year-old Seren never believed the stories her fisherman father told about the lighthouse that appeared only during the seventh tide. But when a storm drags her beneath the waves and she washes up on an island that exists in the space between ocean and sky, she discovers the lighthouse is real, and it’s dying. The keeper, a boy made entirely of collected starlight, tells her the lighthouse holds the boundary between the waking world and the Drowned Realm, a place where forgotten dreams and lost things gather. Without the lighthouse, both worlds will bleed together until neither can exist. Seren has three tidal cycles to reignite the beacon using fragments of light hidden across impossible shores. But the Drowned King wants the lighthouse to fall, and he’s been waiting centuries for someone like Seren to finally give him passage to the world above.

About the author
Akinsanmoye Opeyemi
I write adventure fantasies where ordinary people discover extraordinary courage. My stories explore the thin places between worlds, the power of unlikely friendships, and the truth that heroes are made through choices, not destiny. When I’m not crafting tales of underground realms and impossible quests, I’m searching for magic in everyday moments and believing that the best adventures change us as much as we change them.View all audiobooks by Akinsanmoye Opeyemi
