Summary
Unstoppable war. Unspeakable sins. Impossible love.
The Dread Sorceress Oneira has retired. She’s exhausted from fighting the endless wars of kings and queens, and has long accepted that her death is near. Alone at last but for a few uninvited companions - a near-mythical wolf, a goddess’s avatar, and a feline that embodies magic itself - Oneira realizes that she’s bored. On a whim, or perhaps at the behest of fate, she makes an unlikely trip to the most extensive library in existence…

Every time I think that the borders of fantasy cannot be stretched, Jennifer K. Lambert proves me wrong – Maria Vale, award-winning author of The Legend of All Wolves series and Molly Molloy and the Angel of Death
Both ethereal and sensuous – and with a story as arresting as its pink-pebbled beaches and lavender roses – Jennifer K.
