Children of Ice
by Tristan Colt Cartwright
Part 1 of the Ice Star Prophecy series
A dark, twisting fantasy story told in captivating detail.
In the mountains of Erania of the Inner Planes, Izzax, an ice sorcerer, teaches his little sister magic. Izzablyx, she is called.
He is willing to suffer the fate, but being now a fully-fledged mage, he is eager to test his abilities elsewhere. A casual meeting with his brother, Druzu, provides just such an opportunity. Druzu persuades him to join him on a series of tasks, which could prove dangerous, and rewarding.
The longer he is with Druzu, however, the more disturbing matters become, and he is forced to question his place in his family, if not his entire perspective.
Meanwhile, Izzablyx is given a chance to learn magic at Zax Academy, and she makes a new friend, the shy Razak Arudu. They discover the secret which could forever change Izzablyx's life, but at a cost.
