Few people can create reality from imagination. 

Firian Kess is one of those few. 

 

When Firian’s ability earns him a coveted spot in the mysterious Tanyuin Academy, he finally has a chance to prove his worth. Despite obstacles and rivals, he stays intensely focused, determined that nothing will stop him from becoming the world’s best warrior.

 

Kiria Arioc, the spirited heir to the throne of the war-torn Western Kingdom, has hidden abilities of her own. But even those don’t completely allay her fears that she doesn’t have what it takes to lead the nation she loves.

 

When Firian comes to the capital to protect her, his mission takes an unexpected turn. He begins to suspect the Academy might be using them both for its own darker purposes. When the two don’t know who to trust, will they be forced to turn on each other?

 

If you liked Red Queen or the mind-bending action of the Matrix, try this new fantasy full of intrigue, adventure, and enemies that might be closer than you think.

The Tanyuin Academy Series

Firian Rising

Young and powerful, they finally have the chance to make peace… or war.

Firian Kess, now Head of the Tanyuin Academy, sets his sights on winning over the girl he once took hostage: Kiria Arioc, Keeper of the Western Kingdom. But power always takes its toll. Firian’s better impulses wage a losing war against his desire for control. Longing for more power, he uncovers a deadly ability in the Unreal that jeopardizes his alliances and his humanity.

Facing manipulation at home and war abroad, Kiria’s bold choice to work with the Tanyu, their former enemies, makes her a political target even as she fights her growing feelings for the handsome but selfish Firian. 

With violent enemies threatening both their reigns, they struggle to maintain the fragile peace they find with each other. Despite their efforts, darkness threatens to consume them, putting everyone they care about in mortal danger.

Dark and surprising, this sequel asks how far you can go before you become the very monster you’re fighting.

Into the Unreal

Brace yourself for the jaw-dropping finale of the Tanyuin Academy series, full of twists, action, and a heart-wrenching last stand.

Kiria Arioc and Firian Kess are enemies.

At least as far as Kiria's concerned. Ever since Firian's Tanyuin troops ravaged the beautiful city of Brithnem, she's been on the run, struggling with her new role as leader of a ragtag band, and tumultuous emotions over her former love. Will her resistance be enough to take back the Kingdom?

Firian has a target on his back too. The man he trusted as his mentor now plays a deadly game with all their lives. Guilt-ridden and stripped of everything he cares about, Firian fears that even stopping Master Belik won't be enough to atone for his violent sins. But, as one of the most dangerous people in the world, he has to try.

Kingdoms are burning. For the ones they love, Firian and Kiria will give everything to make things right, even if it costs them their lives.

Be brave. Be dangerous. It's time to fight for the future.
