The Living LoreBy F. Lockhaven

About this audiobook
A forgotten book. Living shadows. A truth that was never meant to be uncovered.
Baxter Movish has always believed that knowledge is the greatest treasure in the world. As an apprentice archivist in the great city of Checcheri, his days are spent restoring ancient texts and preserving history. But when mysterious dreams lead him toward forbidden lore, Baxter discovers that some books do more than record the past—they can change it.
As strange shadows begin to stir and secrets buried for centuries emerge, Baxter finds himself drawn into a mystery that reaches far beyond the safety of the Archive. Joined by the steadfast Derek and the fiercely independent Eidel, he must unravel legends that refuse to stay forgotten before the darkness hidden beneath the world awakens.
Perfect for fans of epic fantasy, mysterious lore, immersive worldbuilding, and adventures where every discovery comes with a dangerous price.
