The Aetherbound Order

The Aetherbound Order

Book One of the Thornbridge Chronicles

Beneath the ivy-clad spires of Thornbridge Academy, where magic simmers beneath a facade of tradition, destinies are rewritten and secrets demand blood.

When Tristan Maren transfers to the elusive and elite Thornbridge Academy, he expects a fresh start. Instead, he's thrust into an ancient mystery tied to a power he never knew existed-The Aether. Dreams twist into warnings, the Spiral pulses with sentience, and shadows stretch long across the hallowed halls.

Quentin Flax has lived with the weight of legacy and the whispers of a power that marked him before birth. But when he meets Tristan, fate bends. Together, they begin to unravel a prophecy long buried by those who fear its truth.

As ancient orders stir and forbidden knowledge surfaces, the Aether awakens-and it remembers everything.

The first full-length novel in the Thornbridge Chronicles, The Aetherbound Order is a dark academia fantasy laced with slow-burn intrigue, supernatural mystery, and a bond that defies fate itself.
