The Pandora's Box - Hardcover

by L. S. Franco (Author)

An Award-Winning YA Sci-Fi & Dark Fantasy Series.

A clean, high-stakes coming-of-age adventure about resilience, self-discovery, faith, and the power of doing what's right.

A throne that cost his mother's life.

A prophecy buried through seven worlds.

Magic, myth, and darkness.

When Liam Hale receives a cryptic message on his 14th birthday, he is left with one choice: fulfill the mission his mother started. For that, he needs to embrace his demigod roots, learn his powers, and get initiated into the magical community.

As dark forces grow, shattering the balance between good and evil, Liam must find The Pandora's Box, hidden in the depths of the Eerie Forest, protected by the sinister Erlking.

Accompanied by a fiercely loyal non-magical friend, a mage apprentice, and two bickering witch-twins, they embark on missions, decoding secrets, and stealing an ancient artifact under the protection of the great centaur Chiron.

But the deeper they go, the harder it is to get out alive.
