Book One of The Watcher's Dream Series

Some scars burn. Some heal sweet. Together they make a man.

Flint Monroe grows up in rural Ohio, where arrowheads lie buried in the soil and family stories carry the weight of scripture. But childhood innocence shatters quickly- through sudden death, the strike of lightning, and the wails of sirens that will follow him into adulthood.

Beneath these moments, another world stirs. In dreams and silences, archetypes gather-Witness, Root, Trickster, Shepherdess- watching and whispering as Flint stumbles toward the man he is meant to become. When he discovers music, and later the calling of medicine, he learns that healing demands both resilience and sacrifice.

Blending literary fiction, psychological drama, and mythic realism, Of Ash and Fire is a story of trauma and resilience, legacy and vocation, the seen and unseen forces that shape a life.

Fans of coming-of-age novels, visionary fiction, and mythic storytelling will find themselves immersed in this unforgettable beginning to The Watcher's Dream Series.
