For twenty years, the war between light and shadow has torn through the land of Avareth. The armies of the golden lion and the dark Claw have left cities burning, families broken, and hope in ashes.

In the quiet treetop town of Maplebend, two young squirrel siblings—Peanut and Kip—dream of making a difference. When war finally reaches their home, they are thrust into a world of soldiers, spies, and kings. At first, the noble King Varrin offers them purpose. But as battles rage and hard truths come to light, the line between right and wrong begins to blur.

After witnessing a betrayal that shatters their trust, Peanut and Kip must choose a new path—one that doesn’t seek victory through violence, but peace through courage, sacrifice, and truth.

Ashes of Peace is a richly woven adventure of war, family, and faith, where even the smallest voices can challenge the mightiest kingdoms. Perfect for readers ages 10 and up, this first installment of the Peacebound Series invites you to journey through a world of animal kingdoms, ancient crowns, and the enduring hope that peace is worth fighting for.
