"When people crap on about the next Tolkien, this series could be it. The sheer amount of effort that has been poured into this world, the races, the locations, the deepening of the lore and backstories continues to increase with each book in the series. The world doesn't need another Tolkien, it needs Nerena and co." – Kris M. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"The writing is so rich in detail... action is well balanced... and the found family vibes shine through, as do the animal companions" – Dee H. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"The author has done a great job at conveying the emotions of each character. The desperation is palpable!" – Beki T. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"From striking imagery to emotional dialogue, you’ll love the pace of this book!" – BooksinParadise ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Newell's writing is excellent ... I was transported into the world, which is my favourite thing in a great fantasy book." – Beware the Jabberwock ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Deep within the forests of Nyn’Dira, darkness rises, and Neer finds herself hunted at every turn. Fleeing from relentless enemies and vicious creatures of darkness, she embarks on a treacherous journey through the dangerous woodlands in search of strength and salvation.
As the humans push further into the forbidden lands, the Nasir and his men close in, finding strength in the blood of the innocent. With the balance beginning to shift, Neer is caught in a war she was never meant to be in, and is forced to make a decision that could change the tides of fate, or cause it all to collapse and burn.
