Nikki Auberkett is a cultural anthropologist, developmental editor, award-nominated author, and lifelong lover of the fae folk. With nearly 15 years of research and exploration into global folklore and mythology, biblical archaeology, and all things weird and unusual, she weaves her research and social science expertise into her personal love for fantasy fiction. Her most recent debut, Ithandryll, is the culmination of over 23 years of writing and revisions—started when she was only eleven years old! Originally intended to be one stand-alone book, it is now the first of a planned 6-8 book series, Song of the Sidhe. The estimated discrepancy is based on her main characters’ terrible habit of never following the map.
Prax (Garden of the Gods Book 1)
by Nikki Auberkett
Genre: Suspense | Horror | Fantasy
Found unconscious in the wake of a devastating storm, Prax Sadeh struggles to regain her footing – and her independence – as she recovers from her coma under the protective eye of her lovingly overbearing mother. She’s not surprised by the strict rules in place meant to help her; after all, her younger sister is practically a shut-in.
What does surprise her is the apparent side-effect from her head injury: the sudden and horrible ability to foresee a person’s imminent death.
The only one who seems to fully understand her struggle to maintain sanity is the local cemetery’s groundskeeper, who is none too pleased by Prax’s frequent visits to the one place her visions don’t plague her. Despite his irritable nature, Aidon Elrik knows a thing or two about seeking solitude and begrudgingly helps her gain some semblance of control over this newfound gift/curse.
When two little girls vanish from a very public place, authorities are stumped for leads and the community descends into panic as rumors fly and interpersonal tensions rise. It’s every mother’s waking nightmare, and Dr. Sadeh is determined to keep her daughters safe, even at the risk of straining her already tumultuous relationship with Prax.
But not even the sanctuary of the cemetery can prevent new visions from shoving Prax into the investigation and deep into the tangled web of the region’s darkest industry.

Ithandryll (Song of the Sidhe Book 1)
by Nikki Auberkett
Genre: Romance | Fantasy
Moving to Chicago should have felt like a dream come true, but for Roxanna Lovegood, it’s a last-ditch effort to run away from a nightmarish past. With the world-famous skyline as her backyard, she’s surrounded by reminders of her progress and survival, even when her heart struggles to piece together the shattered remains of everything she’s lost.
When mysterious strangers break into her apartment, curiosity leads her to a puzzling artifact buried under the floorboards. One moment she’s staring at the night sky over Lake Michigan and the next, she’s running for her life through the forest of a distant realm surrounded by people and creatures she’s only heard of in fairytales.
Only with the help of a highborn fae and his stubborn blend of mischief is Roxi able to navigate the viciously unpredictable world without getting herself killed. Devon is determined to figure out how she wound up there to begin with, and even more determined to send her back home. He’s got secrets to keep and his own set of wounds unwilling to heal, and the last thing he wants or needs is Roxi questioning — and challenging — everything he thought he knew.
There’s just one teensy-weensy problem.
The longer Roxi stays in the realm of the fae… the less either of them wants her to leave.
