In a village where emotion is forbidden, thirteen-year-old Ilia Brann hears a voice in the mirror. It calls her into a forgotten realm shaped by memory and feeling, where nine emotional trials—known as the Nine Echoes—await her. Each path is a mirror, each test a wound, and each step a choice between silence and truth.
As Ilia searches for her missing mother, she is drawn into a battle between the living force of emotion and the growing emptiness known only as the Void. Guided by echoes, haunted by betrayal, and armed with nothing but courage, Ilia must confront what it truly means to feel.
The Path of the Nine Echoes is a lyrical and soul-stirring fantasy about grief, love, bravery, and the dangerous power of memory. Perfect for fans of emotionally rich worldbuilding, symbolic journeys, and stories where the heart must lead the way.
