Books with author A.J. Kilbourn

Syndria is a Healer assigned to heal prisoners in the dungeon because she refused to take part in the king's daily healing ritual. Paodin is a man imprisoned for daring to speak out against the king. When the Royal Wizards enter his cell to finish his torture, Paodin stands to meet them. He speaks of his belief in the Prophecy, the True Wizards, and the true heir being returned to the throne.Then, he vanishes.Syndria was the last person in Paodin's cell, so she is accused of helping him escape. Forced to flee the castle, she finds herself at the mercy of a land into which she hasn't ventured since childhood when her powers were first revealed.The Fates play their part, and Paodin and Syndria are thrust together again. With only the word of a crazy old man as confirmation that they are the two spoken of in the Prophecy, they find themselves leading a rebellion against the king. They soon find out that the king is not the enemy they should be worrying about, though. A power has been released, a sinister Darkness no one has ever seen. They must now fight two wars: one with swords and a far more dangerous one with magic.

“Now,” Roedel said, his voice low and his hand turning the smooth stone in his pocket, “the Feron have returned. Once again they swarm across the land, appearing without warning. Their weapons wound grievously, but they themselves feel no strike and fear no archer.”“And all that stands between this unnatural army and the total destruction of Paideia and her children,” Beryl spoke up, “is a group of misfits sent off on a mysterious journey to seek the help of the residents of the Vale, sent on nothing more than the word of an outsider who appeared in the night with a story of a clumsy half-breed who is said to be the hope of the entire land.”Join Roedel and his companions on their quest to defeat the Feron--and the one who controls the merciless army.

There was once a tiny star who didn't think she was enough--not big enough, bright enough, or pretty enough. The Maker told her He had big plans for her, but she couldn't understand why He would pick her. "The Tiny Star" is a beautiful illustration of God's love for each one of us. He made each of us for a purpose--we just have to trust Him in order to find it.
