Lanterns of Deceit
Synopsis
[ 🏆 WRITATHON CHALLENGE WINNER | BOOK 1 COMPLETE (100K+ WORDS) ]
The kingdom worships a legendary hero.
But the hero is a lie.
A cursed boy born without a shadow carries a deadly gift—his blood reveals the truth behind every illusion.
Every drop exposes the rot of the throne.
Every drop brings him closer to death.
Hunted by Sentinels and guided by a fugitive witch, he must bring down the king.
Even if the kingdom would rather burn him as a monster.
