Brathius Legacy Series

Three hundred years ago, something terrifying arose and pushed humanity to the brink of extinction. Now, a small remnant - the descendants of the survivors who escaped the massacre below - lives above the clouds, on the top of a mountain. When they discover that their water supply is being poisoned Down Below, an expedition, including 17-year-old girl Icelyn Brathius, must descend and face the monsters, the Threat Below, that wiped out civilization centuries ago.

Mountaintop, the last known refuge of humanity, faces a new cataclysm, and only exiled Icelyn Brathius can stop it. But to do so, she must give up all she loves and journey to an accursed, legendary tower in the middle of an unforgiving desert. Can she endure the nightmares and secrets she confronts - and accept what they teach her about herself?
