Our Illumicrate June theme is . . . I WILL FLY!
With dreams in reach, I will spread my wings and fly.
Our June Illumicrate book is a YA fantasy debut! When a young woman’s father is murdered, she vows to take revenge. Disguising herself as her brother, she heads to the capital city. Whilst there, she realises the key to finding her father’s murderer lies with the Engineer’s Guild.
