What if everything you’ve been taught was a lie?

Keix wakes up in an underground prison—weak, emaciated, and battling partial memory loss.

Her captor: Atros, the organization she had joined as a trainee soldier since she was fourteen. Struggling to come to terms with the betrayal, Keix gets swept into the undercurrents of distrust and differing agendas between Atros and the Ifarls, a race with mysterious magical powers—as she tries to walk her own path.

Praise for The Night of Legends

  • “Amazing world building with compelling characters. Highly recommend.”

    — Dave Chua, award-winning author of Gone Case

  • “This book was such a ride! If you're into wildly imaginative world-building and smart-talking characters, The Night of Legends will be up your alley. The prose is witty and the compelling voice made this a fun read that ended too soon.”

    — Joyce Chua, author of The Children of the Desert trilogy

  • “Journalist Leslie W, author of The Night of Legends, is a past mentee of the National Arts Council of Singapore's annual fiction programme—and it shows. She never lets slip her command of the narrative throughout this gripping novel. The cinematic prose, deft world-building, and gripping plot will keep you turning the pages in double-quick time as the challenges (and stakes) for Keix and her friends become evident and increasingly dire. A compelling blend of sci-fi, dystopian, and fantasy, The Night of Legends will appeal to fans of The Hunger Games and Divergent. Certainly Leslie W's novel is as good as anything I have read by Suzanne Collins and Veronica Roth. ”

    — E.S. Alexander, award-winning non-fiction writer and author of historical novel, Lies That Blind

  • “The Night of Legends is an action-packed, speculative adventure that takes its influences from fantasy role-playing games, supernatural stories, and real-world dilemmas. [...] I'm looking forward to the expansion of this world."

    — Joelyn Alexandra, author of Unstable Directions
