Light of the Broken Tongue (Scentmarked #3)

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

Until now, magic has been elemental—fire and lightning, ice and sound. But some power is not wielded. It is spoken. Light of the Broken Tongue draws back the veil on the Fey Kingdom, the living language of Syvareth, and the girl whose birth may change the balance of the world. Through Lumiriel, truths long buried begin to surface—about lost voices, fractured histories, and the price of silence. What became of the four fey who escaped captivity—and what will happen when their stories are finally heard? As the stars shift overhead, the dragons of the Luminous Grove emerge from centuries of isolation. Bound to fate and guided by constellations older than kingdoms, they watch, they wait, and they know more than they are willing to say—especially Altairix, a star dragon whose path is written across the night sky. But far beneath stone and soil, something ancient stirs. An old hunger. A buried evil that remembers the world before peace. If it rises, the fragile alliance between humans, dragons, and fey may shatter completely… or be forged into something stronger than it has ever been. Because there is no force more unifying than a threat that could destroy them all.

Introduction

Welcome to Light of the Broken Tongue, the third book in the Scentmarked series.

This series follows a world of dragons, magic, fate, ancient histories, dangerous creatures, and characters searching for where they belong. Each book has its own central story and romance, but the characters, places, mysteries, and worldbuilding continue from one book into the next, so I recommend reading the series in order.

Before you begin, you can explore the maps of the world if you would like a better sense of where the story takes place. The maps include dragon hordes, human cities, hidden forests, coastlines, kingdoms, and other important locations connected to the series.

Light of the Broken Tongue also takes the story into the fey kingdom, so there is an additional map for those locations as well.

I also do more than write the main stories. I really love worldbuilding, so I created The Scentmarked Archive as a separate published companion story. It contains the lore behind the series, including dragon elements, magical creatures, maps, locations, character details, histories, ancient texts, and other pieces of the world that do not always fit directly into the chapters.

You do not have to read the Archive to understand the story, but it is there if you want to explore deeper.

And if you want even more behind-the-scenes worldbuilding, early access chapters, maps, and extra lore posts, you can also check out my Patreon.

Thank you so much for reading. I hope you enjoy continuing deeper into the world of Scentmarked.

Now, step into the light — and enjoy Light of the Broken Tongue.

bushbaby: I love the slightly different spin on the were-world and I love love love reading Jaspers story splashed in-between. I honestly did not love Dev, he had no character growth and no arc I just didnt like who he is as a person and that made it hard to keep going about half way through. Without Jaspers ...
