Billy Bennett and the Taciturn Spell

Billy Bennett’s only concern was helping on the family farm—until one freezing December night changed everything. Abducted into the brutal world of the northern dwarves, Billy is enslaved by the ruthless Baligore and thrust into a life of hardship and danger. Yet, even in this strange and unforgiving realm, Billy refuses to give up hope.

With only the reluctant help of Koll, Baligore's downtrodden nephew, Billy begins to piece together a plan to return home. He will steal the Taciturn Spell. But when he uncovers a web of treachery—Baligore's plot to assassinate the King and reignite a thousand-year war—Billy is pulled into a high-stakes battle for justice, freedom, and his own survival.

Battling through haunted forests, where witches control the very souls of their victims, and navigating the treacherous dwarven court, Billy must decide whether to trust the cryptic whispers of a girl urging him to find the mythical gnomes. And as alliances shift and danger closes in, Billy learns that the only way to escape this intolerable life is to steal the Wishliss, a powerful artifact that could unite—or destroy—the three magical worlds.

Packed with heart-pounding adventure, unforgettable characters, and the courage of a boy who refuses to give up, The Taciturn Spell is a gripping tale of magic, betrayal, and finding the way home. Will Billy succeed, or will he be trapped in the dwarven world forever?
