Oscuro Destiny

The Seppia Series · Book One

The world of Seppia has always run on a current called the Flow. For millennia, one person held that current in balance. Ten years ago, that person was lost in a catastrophic event called the Great Spark, and the balance has been slowly, invisibly unraveling ever since.

Now two men are drawn back toward the site of that disaster from opposite ends of the world: Nerezza, a researcher in an industrial port city who doesn't remember what he is, and Cattiva, the man whose power caused the explosion in the first place. They haven't seen each other in a decade. What waits for them at the crater is not what either of them expects.

Oscuro Destiny is a fantasy novel about magic, identity, and the weight of being exactly what the world needs you to be. It is also, quietly, a love story of a different kind: between people who grew up together, broke apart, and found their way back across continents.
