The Pale-Eyed Mage

The Dark Amulet, Book 1

Sheldrake is a mage. Maud is a shape-shifter. When their son is born, he is completely pale with nearly white eyes: the legacy of a fearsome great-grandmother.

Jayhan grows into a cheery, accident-prone eight-year-old, unhappily aware of his heritage. Soon, a dark-eyed orphan enters his life. Rescued from a brutal master to become their stable boy, Sasha's past and present are shrouded in secrets.

The only legacy Sasha has of the past is an obsidian amulet. As secrets of the young stable boy's past slowly come to light, they're all thrown into a world of danger.

With ancient prophecies coming to bear and deadly enemies at all sides, can they uncover the secrets of the dark amulet...and survive?

Great story!

This is such a creative story, which I enjoyed immensely. The characters are quite engaging and it was hard to predict the next event, leading me to put in extra listening time.
