The House of Tusk

A wild tale of awakening, The House of Tusk plunges to realms where lines blur and great truths can only be borne by great imagination . . . and the courage to explore it. A 16-year-old schoolboy, Jake Burton, returns home for a funeral – an ordinary boy though powerful beyond belief, not only because he is human and what that really means, or because of the astounding legacy he is about to inherit in another world, but because of a far deeper and darker mystery reaching back 10,000 years. This is a story of an abuse of power of monumental scale. The urgent need to atone for it leads to the formation of a highly unlikely triangle – one of friendship, passion, deep suspicion and betrayal, along with staggering potential. When great forces come crashing together, it will be these three individuals who will decide the fate of the entire cosmos. Whether they destroy it or preserve it will come down to one thing and one thing alone – their ability to trust, above all, themselves and each other. The House of Tusk is Book One in the Lanterns Trilogy, both a perilous voyage through the inner-worlds and a rite of passage – understanding the origin of inherited fears and catching a glimpse of our deeper nature beyond them.
