Echoes of Verity

About this book

In the Kingdom of Verity, society depends on Echo-Crystals, gems that physically manifest from spoken words and crack when lies are told. Sixteen-year-old apprentice Judge Elara Voss has always suppressed her emotions to ensure her echoes remain purely impartial, leaving her feeling detached from the vibrant truths others express. When the sacred Verity Crown—a monumental Echo-Crystal that symbolizes unity—is stolen, a baffling echo is left behind declaring its departure was unforced. As false crystal shatters spread across the archipelago, accusing innocents and threatening to unravel societal bonds, Elara must team up with her stern mentor Thorne Quill, her charismatic rival Kai Lir, and a resourceful vine-weaver named Mira Flint to solve the mystery. Together, they trace the anomaly to a rare whisper-weed pollen that mimics truth, forcing Elara to confront the gray areas of morality, embrace her own vulnerability, and redefine justice before the Crystal Trees plunge the kingdom into eternal darkness.
