Publisher's Summary

"Readers will be swept away … [House of Matchsticks] is a literary rarity." (The Booklife Prize)

Ancient secrets. Simmering lies. A deadly expedition into the deep.

The House of Matchsticks is calling …

Lost, frightened, and thousands of feet underground, Isaline is trying to hold herself together. The expedition to find King Faraday’s workshop has begun, and deep in Benemourne’s deadly Adrudian mines, anything can happen. With the help of her companions, Isaline is ready to discover who she is. But lies and forgotten memories are catching up to her.

Jack Fael is no stranger to forgotten memories. Finally on the way to finding the House of Matchsticks, Jack is torn between a new friendship and uncovering the details of his lost expedition. When Adrudian Milk brings old feelings to the surface, past and present threaten to entwine, and Jack finds himself drawn to a discovery that could change everything.

The Collector and Caladrius have been making discoveries of their own. After the events at the palace, the Collector is desperate to leave Isaline and Jack behind. But Caladrius has other plans, and with their friendship on the line, the Collector must decide between the life he knows and a journey deep underground, where something ancient stirs …

In Tree of Matchsticks, descend into a world of buried secrets and otherworldly evil as Isaline, Jack, and the Collector come face-to-face with an adventure that will test their friendships, their romances, and the very fabric of destiny itself.

House of Matchsticks is a third person, multi-POV series with found family, slow-burn romance (straight and LGBTQ+), and a healthy dose of action/adventure. This is Part 3 in the series. Expect unanswered questions.
