While working in the Academy library, she secretly reads histories used only to teach future leaders to loathe the past. Drethene is inspired by these books filled with cultural variety.

If they choose to remain in the comfort of their rewritten history and false sense of peace, they will be dragged into the maelstrom they have forgotten to fear.Tranquility is a refreshing take on the fantasy genre.

With a rich cast of characters, vivid world building, and a story you’ll be talking about long after you finish reading, Tranquility leaves readers both satisfied and yearning for the next adventure in the series.—Kathryn Lee Martin, author, the Snow Spark SagaWith brilliant world building and unforgettable characters, Tranquility will leave readers wanting more.—Jennifer Salvato Doktorski, author, August & Everything AfterConklin constructs the world of Tranquility into a living, breathing realm filled with secrets, creatures, lores, and meticulous beliefs. Her tale paints a vivid picture of an oppressive society, where diversity is stifled and criticism is squelched, but an undercurrent of hope lives through it all. It’s a smart, eye-opening read. By the end, you’ll be longing for more. — Sonia Poynter, author, The Last Stored
