When the Desert Shines

di Gwenyth Johle (Autore)

Greg Johle, 2026

In the Village of Lights, shadows never fall. But the darkness is waiting. For generations, the bioluminescent gardens of the Village of Lights have kept the desert's terrors at bay, casting a warm, amber glow over a peaceful civilization. Eleven-year-old Katy Sander knows every legend and map of her home by heart, but even her photographic memory can't explain why the eternal lights are suddenly flickering. The warning becomes a terrifying reality when the ruthless Sand Dwellers strike. Led by the menacing General Malakor, the raiders vanish into the shifting sands with the village's vital supplies and their most precious resource: the giant lizards used for survival in the vast, arid wastes. Determined to reclaim what was stolen, Katy and her best friend, twelve-year-old hunter Nick Hallow, set out on a perilous journey across the desert. Joined by their loyal mounts—the steady, protective Spike and the lightning-fast Flash—they must navigate a world of treacherous oases and hidden cultures. Their only hope lies in reclaiming four ancient Artifacts of Power, legendary stones with the strength to pierce magical shadows, endure extreme fire, and reveal hidden truths. From the scorching duels of the Village of Blaze to the psychological trials of the Whispering Dunes, Katy and Nick will be tested like never before. Logic must meet instinct, and courage must face shadow. If they fail to unite the artifacts and stop Malakor, the Village of Lights will be extinguished forever, and the desert will belong to the dark.
