Recent release "The Echoes of Belecia: Flowers in the Desert" from Newman Springs Publishing author J.R. Holmes is a captivating young adult fantasy novel that introduces Azuki Inoue, who gets her medallion at the tender age of 15.
NEW YORK, July 6, 2022 (Newswire.com) - J.R. Holmes, a young gender-fluid person with a lifelong love of fantasy, anime, and horror, has completed their new book "The Echoes of Belecia: Flowers in the Desert": a gripping and potent young adult fantasy novel that follows Azuki Inoue, who finds new friends in Shin Hirayama, Kayume Suzuki, and Umeko Kodama, each a wielder of a medallion that blesses them with powers unique to each of them and strong enough for them to dream of making change in the world.
It's not the power that Azuki cares for; it's the way the magic flows through her, as natural as breathing, how happy she feels in her golds and blues, and the feeling of belonging she has when she is with her friends.
One night during the summer Azuki turns 16, everything changes. Azuki, her friends, and many others like them are suddenly taken, kidnapped by a mysterious international organization, and sent to the far-off world where their medallions originated: Belecia.
Published by Newman Springs Publishing, J.R. Holmes's mesmerizing tale follows Azuki, her friends, and the other medallion holders who come from all over Earth as they learn to survive while struggling to discover what tragedies befell the strange other world that feels like home, a place where deserts grow flowers, whales carry stars on their backs, and black mountains scream with the voices of the dead.
Readers who wish to experience this creative work can purchase "The Echoes of Belecia: Flowers in the Desert" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iBooks Store, Amazon, or Barnes & Noble.
