Synopsis

Only the banished know what lies beyond the woods... There are whispers of what lurks in Witch Knell, the forest where sinners perish. The villagers call it The Eating Woods because what's taken is never returned. Only the banished dare to approach. Maevyth Bronwick knows better than to enter the misty labyrinth, but tragedy forces her beyond the archway of bones into a dark, fantastical world. There dwells Zevander Rydainn, the cursed lord of Eidolon-a cold-blooded assassin-tasked with hiding her from the magehood that seeks her death. Zevander must protect Maevyth, whose blood can break his curse. But his growing obsession with her threatens to destroy everything. Including himself.
