About the book

Nefra survives by scavenging the ruins of a broken world and trusting no one. Her only family is her uncle Enkin, an alchemist whose soul has been trapped inside a doll's body.

Then she meets Aurel, known as Half-Made: part flesh, part crystal, and carrying an artefact that has drawn the attention of Körperlicht. Their uneasy alliance becomes harder to leave behind as they travel through a world of alchemy, grief, and dangerous faith.

Even if the Light Forgets is a character-driven adult fantasy novel with a slow-burn romance, found family, and a ruined world to cross.
