In Thief of Dreams, Nerys and Cody long to be together, but she’s promised to another. Her father takes pity and gives Cody and Gerard one year to compete for her love. Then Cody disappears, but he returns in spirit form to warn Nerys never to pass into the Faery realm, where reality is nothing but a dream. It’s a saga of doomed love that’s sure to keep you on pins and needles as you hope for the best.
Talwyn knows only time in the mist in The Ancient Ones. Spirits of the forest and the guardians of the sacred well have been waiting for her. She spends ages wrapped in a tree, waiting for her purpose. This is a haunting tale of faith and the belief in what one is sent to do—no matter how long it might take before you’re called to service.
In Where Lies Beauty, brother and sister Conn and Tanner are Seekers who can find anything anywhere. However, there is one place where no one dares travel, and that’s into Hagath, a cursed forest where Sha-da-nay exists—a magical city that has fallen into myth, or so it seems. Faylon offers the siblings gold if they’ll take him into the Old World and seek Sha-da-nay. He travels with a scarred and stooped slave named Manny, to whom Tanner feels an odd connection. This final story in the collection is a tale of danger and mystical cities that’ll keep you engrossed from beginning to end.
