The city’s blackouts are not mere inconveniences—they are harbingers of chaos. As the feared and hated mages become more common, they are ruthlessly hunted and enslaved by the Riddere’s secret police.
Cove knows the truth behind the darkness. Ordered to keep his findings secret, he faces a moral dilemma when his sister-in-law’s students are accused of being mages and abducted from her classroom. Should he remain a quiet academic or defy the dark gods and confront the Riddere?
Embark on an epic journey with Cove as he navigates a world teetering on the brink of change, filled with adventure, magic, and the bonds of family and friendship.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

In the not-too-distant future, a 21-member crew launches from Earth. Their mission: to establish a temporary colony on Mars. Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.

Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

The colony on Haven-7 has gone rogue. The colonists have split into two factions: the Techborn and the Dusters. The Techborn have always ruled the planet. They control the remnants of the crashed starship that brought humanity to this new world. The Dusters… they eat Techborn dust. Now, the Techborn strength is waning. Their weapons are getting old, and radiation leaks from the aging reactors have created mutations. Some of these, like their brutish troops known as Tuskers, have proven useful—but others are abominations.

So very vivid!
A brilliant start to what promises to be an epic fantasy series. The audiobook version elevates the already captivating story into an immersive experience, bringing to life a rich, well-crafted world with engaging characters and an intricate plot that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
One of the standout elements of Elystria is its world-building. Jenner has created a realm teeming with unique landscapes, cultures, and histories, making it feel both vast and intimate. From bustling cities to remote villages, each setting is brought to life in vivid detail, allowing listeners to feel truly transported. The story blends elements of high fantasy with fresh twists that feel both familiar and entirely new.
The characters are equally well-drawn, with each having distinct personalities, motivations, and personal challenges. The protagonists are relatable and endearing, each possessing strengths and vulnerabilities that add depth to their heroism. Jenner’s ability to craft complex relationships and dynamic character arcs adds an emotional weight to the story, ensuring listeners are invested in every twist and turn.
The narration is top-notch. The narrator’s voice is versatile, with the ability to capture the nuance of each character’s voice and personality, making it easy to distinguish between them. Their command over pacing and tone helps build tension, heightening moments of suspense and action while bringing out the subtleties of quieter, more reflective scenes. The narrator’s performance truly breathes life into the story, enhancing the emotional impact and making it impossible to press pause.
