About the book
--- INTRODUCTION ---
Thunderwolf Reign is the first book in The War for Wraethias Saga, a multi-volume series. I personally just call it "Thunderwolf" for short.
The story is a hybrid between fantasy and action/adventure with an overarching Coming-Of-Age theme.
From the prologue to the last chapter, this first book introduces essential characters, locations, and concepts.
--- SYNOPSIS ---
This book started with a single question: "What would happen if a teenage girl became omnipotent?"
The answer is, unsurprisingly, chaos.
My question, however, was born of necessity; I was powerless and depressed, and I wanted to write about a girl who wasn't.
Four years later, I asked myself a different question.
"What would happen if a teenage girl became omnipotent?
But what if she were a young woman whose family had been taken from her, and the omnipotence she rejected was what she needed to reunite them?"
That was a far more interesting question.
She had transformed from a happy-go-lucky teenager into a young woman burdened with an unknown family legacy.
She finds herself thrust into a world pulled straight from her favorite video game, where the threat of death is a sobering thought, and her actions have real-world consequences for this new world, as well as Earth.
--- Content Advisory and information for parents ---

This book is not for children.
This book is categorized under
"New Adult Fiction," meaning the characters are 18+ or older, and because of the presence of intense and dark themes, I recommend a minimum reading age of 16.
Sexual content:
Erotic content will never be present. However, there will be flirtatious banter and mild innuendos between characters 18 or older.

Graphic violence is present and occurs frequently. There will be mild descriptions of blood, injury, and blacking out; however, I do not describe things such as limb loss or disembowelment in detail. You might be startled, but you won't lose your lunch.

Tobacco use, alcohol use, and mild language are present.
My dog is a character.
Talia's loyal pup, Khaizen, is inspired by my first dog, Kai.
