New Books by Dartmouth Authors: Undergraduate Students

An adventurer who knows something’s been calling her, an astronomer who has to learn what family means, a guitarist with nothing left but his guitar, and a bird-boy with the most curious talent. Together, they have to find the bravery to sacrifice themselves for a million of strangers and a world they don’t belong to. No one but a human can kill the Emperor of the Afterglow, and they are the last humans that can cross the horizon. An endangered species, we could say, and a target just because they exist. If Rie, Flann, Sava, and Riaan ever want to be free, they have to do what the Wolves of the Afterglow have been trying to do for seventy years: free the Afterglow from its cruel emperor. But how do you defeat the unbeatable when you’re just a human and he’s the most powerful magician of all time?
