"...a stunning young adult fantasy tale." - Reader's FavoriteA poor village. A forbidden gift. A girl hidden from the world.
In the forgotten fishing village of Dimmitt, fifteen-year-old Nara has spent her life concealing powers no one understands.
She can sense the glow of living things. She can imbue ancient runes with power. But even her adoptive father, Bylo, cannot fully explain what she is.
Nara has prayed for answers from Dei, the unseen God said to bless the gifted. But Dei has remained silent, and Nara is beginning to wonder whether her power is a blessing, a curse, or something else entirely.
Every few years, Dimmitt gathers for the announcement ceremony, where a sacred blade called the ceppit is meant to reveal which children have been blessed with magical gifts. For decades, no gifted child has been found.
When Nara discovers why, she makes a reckless choice meant to save her village.
Instead, she invites disaster.
Now dangerous forces are hunting her, ancient prophecy is stirring, and Nara must face the truth Bylo has been trying to hide: the world may never have seen power like this before.
Looking for Dei is Book One in The Godseeker Duet, a YA epic fantasy of hidden magic, dangerous prophecy, faith, sacrifice, and a young heroine searching for the God who has always seemed beyond reach.
