Bound
Echoes of Aethera, vol. 1
Bound is a dark urban fantasy that explores love, loss, and the unseen connection that shape our lives.
Five years after a devastating tragedy, Annika Greene struggles to move forward while forces beyond her understanding quietly influence her path. In another realm, a guardian, burdened by duty, watches over her from the shadows, unable to reveal himself. As their two worlds begin to collide, both are drawn toward a destiny that could change everything.
The Architect of Aethera
Adam C. Hewitt is the author of the Echoes of Aethera continuum, a fantasy saga that explores love, loss, resilience, and the unseen connections that shape our lives. His debut novel, Bound: Echoes of Aethera, Vol. 1, follows Annika Greene, a Seattle chef struggling to rebuild her life after an unimaginable tragedy, and Alexander, the unseen guardian bound to protect her from dangers she cannot perceive.
Drawing inspiration from the Pacific Northwest and a lifelong fascination with the questions that lie beyond the visible world, Hewitt blends contemporary life with a rich fantasy mythology to create stories that are both deeply personal and epic in scope. His work focuses on the strength found in adversity, the power of human connection, and the enduring hope that can emerge from even the darkest moments.
