Outcasts of Velrune
by Isaac Crowe
Maxwell dreamed of becoming a Protector like his father, and now, at the age of sixteen, they have invited him to their headquarters in the big city. To his surprise, his adventurous Lacarnian friend, Evangeline, does not share his excitement at the news. With her being the only catgirl in their small, remote village, he is unaware of the division between the humans and the lacarnians. Leaving the village will challenge Max in ways he is not prepared for.
