The first book in the Lightfall series introduces Bea and Cad, two friends trying to save their world from falling into eternal darkness.
Deep in the heart of the planet Irpa lies the House of Tonics and Liquors for the Salted Pig, home to the wise Wizard Pig and his adopted granddaughter Bea. As guardians of the Endless Flame, they live a quiet and peaceful life, creating medicines and potions for the people of their once prosperous world.
All this changes one day when, while walking in the forest, Bea meets Cad, a member of the Galdurans, an ancient race believed to be long extinct. Cad thinks that if anyone can help him find the missing people, it's the Pig Wizard.
But when they both arrive home, the Wizard Pig is nowhere to be found: all that remains is a jar of endless flame and a mysterious note. Fearing for the Wizard Pig's safety, Bea and Cad set out across Irpa to find him, as danger emerges from the shadows into the light.
Will these two unlikely friends be able to find their beloved Wizard Pig and prevent eternal darkness from enveloping their world? Or has Irpa really seen her last sunrise?
