On a mission for the Wizard Enclave, Orielle
ventures into the Wilding, a strange frontier filled with magical creatures.
There she discovers sprites and wraiths, gobbers and wyre.
All view her as prey.
Never adept with magic, she allies with
Grim, a swordsman who wields elemental power. With him as guide and guard, she
heads for Iscleft Haven, hoping to renew the alliance between the Enclave and
the Haven.
But a wyre pack pursues them. The wolf
shifters are thralls of a sorceress, an enemy of the Enclave. Her foul sorcery
enables them to transform without the pull of the Moon. And the sorceress
steals gobbers from Lady Bone, a Dark Fae creature called a Crygy, queen of the
Wild Hunt, whose riders neither live nor die.
Can Orielle and Grim reach the Haven
without falling to the wyre and the gobbers?
Or must they bind themselves to
Lady Bone and ride the Wild Hunt as the newly chosen of a Crygy?
This is the book that I wrote all through April and used as the driving force for the April blog series A Writer's Month.
