Obsidian Sky

Obsidian Sky is nominated for the Goodreads Librarians’ Rising Readers' Choice Award 2026 

 A hidden bloodline. A waking prophecy. A love that could either save the realm or end it. 

 Obsidian Sky is an electrifying fusion of elemental magic, dragon-rider destiny, and slow-burn romance, delivering a richly imagined fantasy world where one fierce girl’s power—and one guarded prince’s heart—might be the key to saving their realm or destroying it entirely. -NewIn Books 

Thaelyn Marren enters the Asgar Training Academy wanting nothing more than to prove herself amongst the other cadets, where she must endure life-threatening trials in the hope of manifesting air, water, fire, or earth magic. Not to mention, a lucky few will bond with dragons who select their riders with ancient instinct, answering only to those whose souls burn bright enough to match their own.

When Thaelyn’s power stirs in ways no instructor can explain, she draws the attention of the crown, particularly Prince Thorne Dareth, a renowned warrior and a dragon rider. Hardened by discipline and haunted by a kingdom he was born to serve, Thorne sees Thaelyn as a danger to the realm and yet is charged with her training. And amidst clashing personalities, an undeniable pull forms between them, potent enough to awaken dark forces that could tear the world apart.

Now, rift-born creatures thought to exist only in nightmares are slipping through the cracks. And as they push the realm toward open war, Thaelyn may be the only one able to stop what’s coming. That is, only if Thorne can choose between loyalty to his crown or the girl whose power could either save their world or bring it to ruin.

Obsidian Sky weaves together a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romance with dangerous elemental magic, a buried family history, ancient prophecy, and political intrigue. It explores the cost of power, the pull of destiny, and the peril of love bound by fate.

  Obsidian Sky delivers an epic tale of elemental magic, ancient prophecies, dragon riders, and a love that burns brighter than destiny itself. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Goodreads reviewer
