The Riddler's Gift by South African author Greg Hamerton is free from Amazon. This is the first book in the Lifesong trilogy and has received some pretty good reviews.
Quote:
A shadow steals across Eyri. One by one, the Lightgifters are snuffed out. When darkness strikes her family, Tabitha receives a dangerous legacy. Soon the Riddler walks beside her, but is he on her side?
The more she searches for answers, the further into treachery she is led. The more she tries to flee, the harder she is hunted. And the more she sings the ancient Lifesong, the more the world begins to change.
Can she grasp her gift before the darkness captures the last of the light?
"In a darkening realm, which is better: the power to save your love, or to save your love from power?"
