THE SILKENER'S DAUGHTER
The medieval world of Faradair is a school and playground for the
silk merchant’s daughter. At seventeen, Soleia knows four languages, an ancient
martial art, very little embroidery, and nothing at all about boys. But when
whispering a word on a strange coin summons mythical creatures and tears her
privileged world apart, she questions just how sheltered her life has
been. When those she loves are wrenched from her grasp by an unknown
power, Soleia must turn to the boy who gave her the coin: Rafe, a reluctant
candlemaker's son who seems to know more about her past than she does.
Unaware that they hold the keys to freeing an ancient magic from
the tyranny of an immortal enemy, Rafe and Soleia embark on a reckless mission.
To save Rafe’s ailing mother, one of the last of the Inheritors, they brave the
dangers of the Forgrayken Mountains and the deadly Phasm Gysgodan to find the
cure, if it still exists. Little do they know how their homeland is being
stirred to war, how a forgotten queen is exacting her revenge on the Children
of Golayu, and that their actions are stirring the attention of a dark God. To
survive, Rafe and Soleia must accept that old stories hold truth, lives must
be changed, and magic runs through blood . . . and silk.
