Five magical warriors on a deadly mission. Two imprisoned, one fatally wounded, and two trapped outside. Can they use their unique magic in new ways to escape, survive and succeed in their mission?
Split up freeing abducted humans in the Underworld, the five Asters will have to use their magic in ways they didn't even know was possible, to have any chance of successfully completing their mission and quelling the rebellion of Mitrik, the Dark King of North America.
Matu has to trust Nathan that his magical abilities can find their brothers and sister in the Underworld and keep Lian alive until he can be rescued. Sky has to rely on Sophie's creative thinking to get them out of Mitrik's magical dungeon. And even if they succeed, there are still Mitrik's Disciples to face down, led by the fearsome Kali.
A Threat To Remain is the last in a YA fantasy prequel trilogy featuring siblings in magic - Nathan, Sophie, Lian, Matu, and Sky - in the deadliest adventure of their lives. Join the Asters as they fight to stay alive and take down the North American King.
Ellen, Frances: - "Frances Ellen writes YA fantasy stories full of magic and adventure, action and jeopardy, sacrifice and betrayal, deep bonds of friendship, and a light touch of romance. Her first series describes a world where humans with exceptional affinities for specific traits, the Affinites, led by a magical elite known as the Asters, protect humans from the ever-present threat from Dark Kings. The Asters are a diverse group of teenagers, magically and culturally, whose adventures take them to all parts of the world, both above and below ground, filling a gap in the YA fantasy genre that Frances wanted to read but couldn't find. The idea for the Asters first came to Frances on holiday aged 15; building the legend, history, characters and events of the Astersphere, in her head and on notes, consumed her spare time ever since. In 2021, the Aster Prequel Novella trilogy to the main series was first published. Frances is currently working on the novels in the multi-book Asters Original Series, with the first expected to release in summer 2022.

She graduated from the University of Amsterdam with a degree in English Literature and from London Middlesex University with a Master's in Novel Writing. Next to writing, Frances trains guide dogs for the blind. Her dream is to support herself with her writing so she has the time to foster and train more guide dogs on the side. She currently lives in Amsterdam with her flatmate."
