Ledge: The Glacian Trilogy, Book I (Glacian Trilogy, 1)

Ledge is the heart-stopping beginning to The Glacian Trilogy from TikTok sensation Stacey McEwan

After being randomly selected as a human sacrifice, instead of death, Dawsyn finds herself on a quest to save her people from their icy prison...



In a place known as the Ledge, a civilization is trapped by a vast chasm and sheer mountain face. There is no way for anyone to escape the frozen wasteland without befalling a deathly drop. They know nothing of the outside world except that it is where the Glacians reside – mystical and vicious winged creatures who bring meagre rations in exchange for a periodic human sacrifice.

Dawsyn, ax wielder and only remaining member of her family, has so far avoided the annual culling, but her luck has run out. She is chosen and ripped from her icy home, the only world she knows. No one knows what will happen to her on the other side, least of all Dawsyn. Murdered? Enslaved? Worse?

Fortunately, a half-Glacian called Ryon offers to help them both escape, but how can she trust one of the very creatures that plagued her life? Dawsyn is a survivor, and she is not afraid to cut anyone down to live.

With a slow-burning romance, high stakes and even higher rewards, this richly created new fantasy series by popular TikToker Stacey McEwan will keep you gripped to the very end.

Characters, plot, writing, banter, this story was absolutely FANTASTIC!! Why aren't more people talking about this?!? As someone who normally doesn't care about the romance in a book, the dynamic between the love interests was perfect! We don't have a damsel in distress and we don't have a perfect hero, and the twists had me running out of annotation tabs. My favorite moments involved the once secluded individual discovering the world for the first time, observing her environment through such confused eyes. Fun attention to detail! That ending was gut wrenching so I'm jumping straight into book 2 now!
