The Stone Chronicles
The Stone Chronicles are an epic, Slavic-based fantasy trilogy that explores the cost of power and the fragile line between healing and harm. At its heart lies Altnir: the ancient, half-forgotten Source of All Magic who's spoken about in the old tales, feared by the people, and dismissed by mages and scholars as myth. But its power is real, and it threatens to unravel the world due to the excesses that the mages enjoy.
An early chapter appeared in the literary journal, The Write Launch. Following substantial revision, it now forms "Chapter Four" of the novel, The Stone's Healer.
When Josef and Nadia flee their blighted farm and seek refuge in a remote village, they stumble into a mystery darker than the failing fields they left behind. Neighbors whisper about curses. People vanish. And deep in the forest, magic pulses, ancient and wild, calling out to those who can hear.
Nadia's healing ability draws the attention of Mage Karl. Banished and discredited, he seeks the power of the Source of All Magic to reclaim his position and nothing will stand in his way, especially a woman.

Boris, once Karl's apprentice, now carries a truth that the kingdom is not ready to face. The old legends were right: Altnir exists, and the magic has been corrupted by the mage's greed. Sent to the capitol by Altnir to stop the unraveling of the threads of magic, he must navigate the perilous tensions between the King's court, the Mage Council, and the demands of a servant of the ancient Mother goddess.
The myth of Altnir, once bedtime stories, becomes a political weapon. As factions argue over who should control magic's future, Boris stands at the center of a storm fueled by fear and ambition. If he fails, the spreading corruption will devour far more than a single remote village.

Book 3: The Stone's Choice
Adam, the child marked by Altnir, comes of age into a world on the brink of collapse. The magic flairs dangerously, twisting spells and sickening mages. Archemage Varyan, obsessed with controlling this power, seeks to bind Altnir to his will-even if it destroys the kingdom.
To stop him, Adam must understand the true nature of Altnir, not at a mystic fountain of power, but as a living presence born at the dawn of creation, now wounded by centuries of misuse. Restoring the balance means confronting both the sins of the past and the costs to the future.
His final choice will determine whether magic is healed or whether the world falls.
