In a world where kingdoms rise and fall by the power of an ancient forest, the Heart of the Everwild is the ultimate prize - a mythical relic said to grant unparalleled protection to the kingdom that claims it. Now, as the Everwild's shielding magic begins to wane, five kingdoms send their finest champions to retrieve the Heart, knowing its power could shape the future - or destroy it. Among the contenders is Lyra Everwyn, Princess of Thaloria, a realm built on whispers of magic and the flickering light of the stars. A brilliant sorceress, Lyra carries the hopes of her kingdom on her shoulders. From Veyrath, the Kingdom of Steel and Shadow, comes Auren Macanthos, a hardened warrior prince. Forged in battle and driven by loyalty to his people, his distrust of magic and those who wield it runs deep, making Lyra his natural rival. Thrust together in a grueling training camp before entering the forest, Lyra and Auren clash at every turn. Yet, as the forest's trials force them into an uneasy alliance, they discover that the Heart is far more than a relic of power. In the deepest parts of the forest, the champions will face not only the dangers of the Everwild but also the secrets it holds. And when the true cost of claiming the Heart is revealed, Lyra and Auren must decide: Will they fight for their people's future, or sacrifice everything-including each other-for a greater purpose?…

Clara Bronson hadn't thought that a lion would ever be capable of speaking English, nor did she expect to find a whole world behind her grandfather's beloved wardrobe with four siblings from Finchley. For many years Clara had lived a life of cold solitude, having been sent to her grandfather's house by a mother that could no longer care for her.
