The Rings of Dialisk by Michael R. Willacy - YA/MG Fantasy Adventure - July 2026
Cole Rowe has nothing — a crumbling flat, no job, and nowhere to be. Until a stranger in a homeless shelter presses a ring into his hand and disappears.
The ring has awoken.
Transported to Sajerskeep — a realm where magic is feared, four-armed creatures roam the desert, and a figure known only as Fiend hunts those who carry power — Cole finds himself with a ring he can't remove, magic he can't control, and no idea how to use either.
Good thing he met Effie.
Perfect for fans of Percy Jackson, Fablehaven, and Ranger's Apprentice, The Rings of Dialisk is Book 1 in an epic fantasy adventure series.
Triggers: Mild fantasy violence, homelessness (brief, non-graphic), themes of isolation and belonging. No sexual content. Suitable for ages 12+.
