Moon & Shadow - Paperback

by J. Steven Lamperti (Author)

A young man takes the moon from the sky. The village wants to know why.

Sebastian is an ordinary village boy-until he isn't. One quiet evening, he reached up, took the moon from the sky, and hung it above his hearth.

After that, strange things begin to follow him-things he calls gifts, though no one offered them: the shadows left behind by his true love, the breath of a dreaming dog, a sword that remembers war.

Magic has taken an interest in Sebastian. And it isn't finished with him yet.

As his quiet village stirs with wonder, suspicion, and something darker, Sebastian risks losing the only home he's ever known. Drawn into forces far beyond his understanding, he becomes tangled in a story that truly begins when he meets a mysterious girl named Anise-and unfolds into a world shaped by dreams, memory, and forgotten powers.
