In the House of Hyrax, nothing is ever as it seems, and no one is truly safe from the webs of deceit and intrigue that govern the land.
The series begins with The Rose in the Shadows, where Theadora Moore, the last living descendant of Hyrax—the God of the Dead—finds herself pulled into the tangled politics of Athenia. With no memory of her past and an awakening magic threatening to overtake her, Thea’s journey of self-discovery leads her to confront both her terrifying heritage and the complex world of powerful families, where allies are often enemies in disguise.
In To the Edge of Athenia, the prequel, the foundation of the world is built as readers meet a group of unlikely friends who will later shape the course of history. Their bond and loyalty will be tested, setting the stage for the dangerous and dark path that lies ahead.
The saga continues with The Crown of the Dark Prince, where trust is a luxury few can afford, and alliances are tested to their breaking point. As Thea delves deeper into her powers, she uncovers secrets about the realm that challenge everything she thought she knew—and learns that her role in Athenia’s future might be darker than she ever imagined.
Richly immersive with layers of complex characters and political intrigue, the House of Hyrax series is a slow-burn fantasy that masterfully blends high-stakes adventure with heart-pounding romance. It explores themes of loyalty, identity, and the cost of ambition, offering readers a deep dive into a world where every decision could mean life or death.

Brace yourself for a story where the gods walk among mortals, and the cost of survival is steep. Will Thea and her companions rise to the challenge, or will they fall victim to the very powers they seek to control? Only time will tell in the ever-dangerous world of House of Hyrax.
