About The Bestowed - A Dark Manifest
An ambitious archer. An anxious healer. A desperate thief Isaac is Bestowed, chosen by Nature as a leader and protector, only he lives in Talen, far away from anyone to lead or protect. He yearns to join the heroic group of fighters who protect the world from untold dangers, the Paladins of Valoria. Forget sky-high qualifications and a will of iron-the biggest hurdle for Isaac's dream is his protective father who refuses to let Isaac leave. Until Isaac finds himself rescuing a giant bear from an onslaught of enchanted arrows. Isaac's world is turned upside down when he learns the truth about who his parents are, his mother's death, and a re-emerging evil who wants him specifically. Can Isaac survive to become the hero he's always dreamed of being? Or will evil forces stop him before he and his friends even begin?Book one in the YA Fantasy series: The Bestowed This book hits the sweet spot between Rangers Apprentice and Eragon. Also for readers of Jennifer Nielsen and Pedro Urvi. Great to read with your teens and tweens. No profanity. No sex. Narnia-level violence.
