Eolyn

In a land ravaged by civil war, the Mage King Kedehen initiates a ruthless purge of women practitioners of magic. Eolyn, sole heiress to a forbidden craft, escapes by fleeing to the South Woods. When the mysterious Akmael appears in her forest refuge, Eolyn finds hope in the young man’s friendship. But Akmael has a secret: He is the Mage Prince, son and heir to the man who slaughtered Eolyn’s family. When their paths separate and intertwine again, Eolyn and Akmael emerge as leaders on opposite sides of a violent conflict, one that will determine the fate of a millennial tradition of magic. When the final battle approaches, Eolyn must decide whether to take up arms against the most powerful mage in the kingdom – and destroy the man closest to her heart. In Book One of this award-winning fantasy trilogy, survivors of the Great Purge become entangled in a web of desire, vengeance, and renewal. At the center, Eolyn, last daughter of an ancient sisterhood, rises up against a realm of brutal wizards, challenging their authority in a desperate bid to restore women’s magic. “Vigorously told deceptions and battle scenes, with a romantic thread.” – PUBLISHERS WEEKLY “Headstrong, hopeful, and fiercely loyal to her roots, Eolyn is a character you can’t help but stand behind.” –APEX REVIEWS A “dreamlike, fairy-tale ambiance…immersive political machinations and grand-scale battles.” –KIRKUS REVIEWS “Magnificently written.” –KINDLE BOOK REVIEW
