Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Fourteen-year-old Léo Vernet thinks his grandfather's secrets have nothing to do with him.Then a package arrives.Inside is a dark metal disk unlike anything Léo has ever seen. The first time he touches it, the lights go out. Batteries drain. Blue sparks leap from his fingers.And by nightfall, strangers are trying to break into his house to take it.Léo soon discovers that the object is a Talisman-one of a handful of ancient artifacts capable of awakening extraordinary Gifts in certain people. His Gift is Energy, a power no one has wielded in decades.His only chance to learn how to control it lies at Rochebrune, a hidden estate where young bearers train alongside Guardians who have spent generations protecting the Talismans and the secrets surrounding them.But Rochebrune holds secrets of its own.Why did Léo's grandfather send him the Talisman just before his death? What was his missing father really searching for eight years ago? And why are people willing to kill for objects whose true origins may reach back far beyond recorded history?Between school, dangerous training sessions, new friendships, old betrayals, and a power he can barely control, Léo is about to discover that inheriting a Talisman means inheriting far more than a Gift.Some secrets are buried for a reason.And some are beginning to wake.The Awakening is the first book in The Heirs of the Stone, a contemporary fantasy adventure filled with ancient mysteries, supernatural powers, hidden societies, friendship, humor, and danger.
