"The Naming" by Alison Croggon follows the journey of Maerad, a young girl living in a harsh, oppressive world. After discovering her magical abilities, she becomes embroiled in a struggle against an ancient evil threatening her land. With the help of a mysterious bard named Cadvan, Maerad embarks on a quest filled with danger, self-discovery, and the power of naming—an ancient magic that connects words and reality.
