Sixteen-year-old Khari is a Vaia Lamp-Carrier. Her dreams provide guidance for the tribe, if she can interpret the messages they send. Now she must use all her skill, and trust instincts she has only begun to have, in order to save her people from extermination.

Khari’s dreams lead her and a small group of Vaia out of their native country and into neighboring Namora, which is undergoing political turmoil of its own after the death of its long-standing ruler. In this tiny and unfamiliar land, Khari must find allies, in particular a Namoran priest with an extraordinary mental gift of his own. The Vaia’s search for a safe homeland will change the lives of all the people it touches, as well as the futures of two nations.

“Fourteen Stones. This book. My words can’t do it justice. It creates a whole world and brings you right into it, following along with the different characters, getting to know and love them…you find yourself cheering them on and hoping for their success. It is beautifully written and allows your imagination to see everything the author has so carefully constructed…I was truly blown away.”
