Part of the Shadows and Light series
A boy must find magical flowers to save his family, but others seek their power too.
Young Amzin faces a daunting quest: guide bees to the elusive Moonflowers to harvest their life-saving honey. With his family gravely ill, he must navigate a world where others covet the flowers' magic. As he ventures into the unknown, will he succeed in his mission, or will the shadows of those who seek the same power thwart him? In a tale woven with magic and mystery, Amzin's journey is one of survival and discovery, where the stakes are life itself. Can he outsmart those who threaten his family's future?
Azin and his nomadic family rely upon the Moonflowers to keep them alive. When his elders are taken ill, young Azin is left to guide the bees to these rare flowers and return with their precious honey, but he is not the only one seeking out their magic…
The fifth in a series of six illustrated folk tales for children which explore the supernatural world, inspired by ancient folk tales and a love of nature. Be ready to feel a little bit of magic, and perhaps a few shivers down the spine.
