Beyond the Veil - Paperback

by Chloe Marie (Author)

Gods. Monarchs. Fae. Humankind.

All will answer for their sins until only one remains.

Since my arrival at Briarsmourne Manor at nine years of age, I have lived in a comfortable haze beneath the boot of my uncle, Lord Fjord of Quasaria. I obeyed. I remained quiet. I followed the laws as they've been taught to me.Until now. The whispers too strong, the desires too deep. I craved this taste of power as intrinsically as I needed air, and no laws would forbid me of my favors this day. Hadn't I known the consequences of this act of faeadrie? Hadn't I agreed to the murder I committed when I approached the young boy with my dagger and impaled his skull with it?Despite the bite of warning, the fates decided long ago that I would betray my kind and embrace faeadrie. Too late, I have found that in this world of men and monsters, there are crueler prophecies dictating my fate than the actions of my temptations alone. And in the end, is it the world by whom the gods have forsaken which will pay, or will humanity prevail in exchange for the twin of my soul's flame?

Perfect for fans of The Plated Prisoner Series and The Last Unicorn, Beyond the Veil is a bewitching dark fantasy novel that unravels haunting themes of self-identity, the allure of power, and how far we will go to protect the ones we love.
