For years, a dark shadow has loomed over the Six Kingdoms. The Ungifted, people believed by many to be abominations, forsaken and forgotten by the gods, have become commonplace. They struggle in a world that does not want them, surrounded by magic, the Gift of the gods to their creations, which they cannot use. Beaten, betrayed, and met only with tragedy and heartbreak, they can do only one thing: survive. As unknown forces begin to collude and bring their mysterious designs to bear across the land, fate has begun to draw into its weave the lives of those who will serve to shape the course of history: a queen and king, locked together in a battle for the very soul of their land, on the precipice of disaster at the hands of old enemies, an assassin who's darkest moment becomes the beginning of a journey that may allow her to rediscover her lost humanity, a man without allegiance, who toes the line between honor and ill repute in a world that offers only hatred, a thief who cannot reconcile the ways of the world as he becomes embroiled in the plight of the unlikeliest of individuals. A Darkness Dawning chronicles the lives of the Gifted, the Ungifted and those in between, their fates entwined in a tale of tragedy and hope, choice and consequence, loss and love.
Autorenporträt
Matthew Story has always had a fascination with storytelling, enthralled by the workings of fantasy and science fiction. From one of his earliest memories watching Disney's Sword in the Stone while sick in bed, to reading the entirety of the Lord of the Rings trilogy at the age of ten, this fascination, partnered with an overactive imagination and crippling social anxiety, is likely the reason he spends far too much time embroiled in the world of video games and movies. He seeks to bring to life stories and characters that explore both the evil and good in humanity, while exploring his admittedly limited and definitely, mostly original fantasy settings. When he can convince himself to take time away from his education and gaming to do so.
