On the horizon — Book Three: Aurora Legacy · Book Four: Aurora Convergence
On his eighteenth birthday, Alex McLeod discovers a secret pulsing in his veins — the aurora borealis has chosen him. Sparks dance at his fingertips, shields flare from nowhere, and Toronto itself hums when he walks its streets. Alex just wants to stay invisible. But the world has other plans.
A ruthless energy mogul will stop at nothing to harness Alex's power for his own machine. A covert Canadian agency hunts him under the promise of “belonging” — their red-dot map spreading across the nation.
Mentored by a scarred ex-agent who warns that every gift has a cost, Alex must decide: stay hidden and risk losing everyone he loves, or step into the light and embrace a destiny he never asked for.
“Perfect for fans of Percy Jackson and The Umbrella Academy — a coming-of-age story about power, identity, and the price of choosing who you’ll become.”
Alex McLeod is no longer a ghost — he’s Canada’s first reluctant protector.
“The aurora scenes took my breath away — I've never read a superhero story that feels this Canadian. Alex is the reluctant hero you can't help rooting for.”
“Percy Jackson energy with a distinctly northern soul. The moment the red-dot map lit up, I couldn't put it down.”
“I picked this up for my son and ended up reading it myself in one sitting. Fast, warm, and full of heart.”
“Finally a coming-of-age fantasy where friendship and identity matter as much as the powers. Book Two can't come soon enough.”
“Sparks, shields, and a city that hums — Northern Lights Rising is pure electricity from page one.”
“A crisp read that feels like a full season of a great show. The Canadian settings make it all feel real.”
