Khromie, The Kingdom of Light - Up

Rain is a talented software developer living with his fiancée Maria in New Hamptons. When a devastating accident should have ended his life, he awakens in a mysterious temple in another world: Khromie, a realm where magic flows through mystical moons and an ancient prophecy speaks of coming war. Discovered to possess an energy core that marks him as one of the Khromie people, Rain must leave everything behind to train as a sorcerer and fulfill a destiny he never asked for. As he develops his magical abilities and transforms physically into his true form, Rain becomes entangled in a conflict spanning millennia: one that threatens not only Khromie but Earth itself. With the High Priestess Kyra as his guide and the wise King Julius as his mentor, Rain must master six schools of magic and complete dangerous trials on mystical moons. But when his past collides with his present in an impossible way, Rain faces a choice that will spark the very war the prophecies foretold. Up is the first book in the Khromie series: a dark fantasy tale of transformation, sacrifice, and the thin line between salvation and betrayal.
