Taking Wing

by Ken Hughes

The killer fights to save a life. The hero could lose it all. Colin's battle with Eric has left his friends dead, his face scarred, and his allies turning to hunt him down. All that sustains him are his skein armor and his sister, and Eric will ravage the town to imprison her again, all for a hope of healing her. Two secrets change everything. One is the truth about the skein magic, that could give Colin the strength to match his unstoppable foe - if he can keep Eric from seizing that too. The other could shatter everything he's fought for even if he wins. Now Colin gathers his last allies and all the courage he can find, to face a threat that no armor can shield him from. Who can stop a killer, if the hero's not enough?

His novel Shadowed was nominated for a Global Ebook Award. The series he’s launching with the upcoming The High Road is meant to prove one thing: how writing a thrilling cliff-hanger for heroes who can fly takes writing to a whole new level. (Don’t get him started on puns.)
