Anathema

Más información sobre el libro

A spellbinding gothic dark fantasy unfolds as a shunned woman is thrust beyond the mortal realm's forbidden boundary into a terrifying world of cursed souls and grotesque creatures. Whispers surround Witch Knell—the forest where sinners go to die, known as The Eating Woods, where what’s taken is never returned. Only the banished dare approach this treacherous place. Maevyth Bronwick understands the dangers of venturing into the misty labyrinth of trees, yet a tragic event propels her past the archway of bones into a realm that is both perilous and enchanting. Here resides the cursed lord of Eidolon, tasked with keeping her hidden from the magehood that seeks her demise in the name of an arcane prophecy. Zevander Rydainn, known as The Scorpion, is the coldest assassin in Aethyria, and he would rather sacrifice his feisty ward to vicious fyredrakes than protect her. However, Maevyth’s blood holds the key to breaking his curse and defeating the lurking evil in Witch Knell. As fate intertwines their lives, Rydainn's growing obsession with the enchanting Maevyth threatens to unravel everything, including himself. This full-length gothic dark fantasy is the first in The Eating Woods duology, ideal for readers who appreciate a plot-heavy, atmospheric narrative with a unique magic system, slow-burn romance, and a hint of horror.
