Summary

A dying world. An academy to train seafaring heroes. Four 18-year-olds trying to survive it all.

Silver beasts, lack of provisions, royal intrigue, and cloaked threats plague this realm. Four young people are chosen to attend the Hall of Explorers academy to train their minds, bodies, and magic, to sail and find their people a new world.

Representing the Lakelands, Eleksander, the sensitive boy with a shrouded past. From the North, Sabina, the rational warrior with her snowtiger. On behalf of the Woodlands, Hale, the fearless orphan with something to prove. From the Peaks, Avelynne, the insecure countess with a shameful secret.

Before they brave the unknown seas, they must complete their training. Not to mention getting to know each other and become a tight-knit team. Disturbing and bloody incidents soon make that even harder than it should be. Not knowing who to trust makes it worse.

They will have to face their individual issues and overcome them together if they’re to avoid becoming puppets in a game where they don’t understand the rules. Or worse, die before even finishing their training.

An unexpected fantasy/inclusive gem!

I recently won a code to the sequel of this saga and decided to buy the first book.
I was intrigued by the theme and setting and I wasn’t at all disappointed by this listening!

This book introduces us to the wonderful, magical, universe of Cavarra in which 4 young people from the 4 corner of the realm are chosen to give the population a future by being trained to looking for new lands where they can all rebuild a future escaping form the menace the realm is facing: the silver beasts.

I loved the story, the intrigues, the depth of the characters and the introspection that bonds you to all the main ones through their struggles to prove themselves worthy of their mission.
I’m not used to follow series of books, but I’ll definitely stick to this one looking forward to their future adventures!

Taken a first bite and i want more

A lovely YA fantasy tale to start of the series, bootcamp for young magical pirates in a land beseeched by silver beasts. Think a cross between harry potter and hunger games with a dash of medieval flair.
This first book will wet your appetite enough to want to learn more about the worldbuilding, the four lands, the silver beasts, the magic. and the characters which are diverse and flawed and great seperate as well as together.
Expect some intrigue, plenty of teen feelings, and a nice start to a new adventure of growing up.
