Talin and the Tree – Book 1

A teen discovers a whole world beneath a tree and learns he is to be the next island Healer

It’s more than just a tree…

An island’s sacred tree hides a portal to an underground world full of mystical energies—and the shocking truth that local superstitions are much more than just myths as a forgotten legend awaits revival!

When Talin, a bullied outcast, unexpectedly plunges into the portal and is chosen to fill the long-vacant role of island Healer, the reluctant teen must make a difficult decision: accept his destiny or let the power that comes with it fall into the evil hands of his rival who believes he is the next Healer.

But only one youth can claim the decades-old title… and the battle won’t be easy.

If Talin is to keep the legend alive for future generations, he must face challenges like never before—and stay alive long enough to navigate between both worlds.

Described by young adult readers as Harry Potter meets The Chronicles of Narnia, you’re sure to enjoy Talin and the Tree-The Legend, Book 1 of this new, enchanting, and addicting epic fantasy series.

This is a wonderful tale, full of mystical magic and wonder. It is fully engaging, and held my interest very well. It was easy to lose myself in this tale, which is what I love when I’m reading. I heartily recommend this book, even if you aren’t a “young adult”.

I absolutely loved this book!!! It’s one of those books you wish you could listen to… With a multi cast of voice actors. ♥️♥️ I would 100% read this over again and cannot wait to start the next book!! The cliffhanger at the end had me on the edge!!
