Floating Stories

"Once a being has been named, it has power. Be sure to take care of yours. I'd know how important it is, because I lost mine." Joshua is always fretting over the "what ifs" in life, but never trusts his gut feeling because it's always wrong... at least until one summer afternoon when he, his friend Markl and cousin have nothing to do and dare each other to go touch the door of the house on the end of the street. The house everyone hated. For the first time, Joshua and Markl are at a loss to do when the strange little girl Alice forces them into playing a very dangerous game if they want Sharon back. But they're not the only victims. There are others forced into games, some knowing they're playing and others not, but they all have their own goals. The only question is if Alice is prepared to give them a winning chance.

Centuries after the Eclipse fractured the Obscura Realm, the skies themselves are beginning to fail. Far above the world, hidden beyond violent storm layers and atmospheric distortions, the floating Veiled Isles have remained isolated for generations, ancient sanctuaries built to contain catastrophic fractures forming within the heavens themselves. Most believe the Isles are myth. But when resonance storms intensify, gravity distortions spread across multiple regions, and entire sky routes begin disappearing without explanation, forbidden archives hidden within the Isles reveal a terrifying truth: the heavens were never divine. They were containment systems. Now, as ancient stabilization engines begin failing across the sky, whispers spread of an impossible figure long believed extinct: an Air Stabilizer. A living resonance anchor tied directly to atmospheric fractures, pressure currents, and the unseen forces preventing reality itself from tearing apart above the realm. As political tensions rise between the floating cities and ancient systems awaken beneath the clouds, the Veiled Isles must confront a truth buried long before the Eclipse: the sky is not holding. And when the Hollow Heavens finally break... everything below may fall with them.

When The Last Magician rose islands off of the earth and into the safety of the sky to free human civilization from the monstrous creatures roaming below, he was worshiped, hailed as a legend . . . until he turned to one. No one ever saw him after that fateful day, but they knew he was alive, or else the islands would've crumbled to the ground, and the growing population would've suddenly perished. In order to outlive death, The Last Magician filled an enchanted glass vial with his blood and kept it on his island, in his mansion-like lair, where it would remain for eternity. At least, that was what he'd hoped for. When the vial is stolen, the desperate mage enlists the help of four children, four distant cousins with magic racing through their veins. Baisley, who lived to keep others healthy. Oakley, who promised to fight until her last breath left her. Dixie, who happily kept her eyes on the stars. And Iridia, who couldn't possibly care less. In this riveting tale of adventure, four teenage children try to navigate their way past trust, loss, revenge, and a whole new world. If they got lost . . . Book 1
