A Castle of Ash

<p><em>This world has fallen to sickness and shadow. It has bound my hands and blinded me picking away at the things I love until even my conscience has slipped off to some forlorn cage within my mind locked away as a traitor. I once feared the storm inside me. Now I would give anything to have it back.</em></p><p>To prove the purity of my soul I sacrificed everything. I lost my magic my best friend and tied myself to the five kings of the afterworld in unholy matrimony. Now every day is torture at their hands. I am their final hope a perfect weapon to wield in the ultimate war still looming ahead of us. They will push me as far as it takes no matter what.</p><p>Every day I give a little more of myself away and they're snapping up each piece as though they have a right.</p><p>Every day the Darkness takes another victim picking off people all around me until those of us who fight for light and life are outnumbered in a world we're no longer sure is our own.</p><p>The end is drawing near but the closer it gets the more impossible our victory seems.</p><p>Even after everything I've sacrificed ... I fear it won't be enough.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>This epic apocalyptic fantasy is dark lush and gritty. The heroin has multiple slow-burn love interests who all begin as <em>true enemies</em> so you don't have to choose your favourite anti-hero. This series has some intense and dark themes and the heroes begin as utterly irredeemable alpha a-holes so consider yourselves warned!</strong></p>
