An abandoned child becomes a singular inspiration to the mythology of Muirwood in an epic series by Jeff Wheeler, Wall Street Journal bestselling author of the Muirwood & Kingfountain novels. Eilean was born a "wretched"-a lowly foundling raised by the Aldermaston of Tintern Abbey. Then she's chosen to assist in establishing the new abbey of Muirwood, now the site of a castle in the swampy Bearden Muir. Eilean's role is as night servant to the druid Mordaunt, the king's exiled advisor-and prisoner. He's clever, dangerous, & invaluable to the Aldermaston. Mordaunt's priceless secret: the hiding place of an ancient tome that reveals the existence of other worlds & the magic between them. Mordaunt knows how potent its words are & how dangerous they could be in the wrong hands. But can Eilean win him over? All she must do is gain Mordaunt's confidence & trust & persuade the apostate to divulge his secret to her. But as she learns more from Mordaunt, Eilean's loyalties begin to fray. & the risks are greater than she imagined. Despite betrayals, deceptions, & the deadly motivations of others, a girl from the flax fields is about to rise above her station. By exploring the potential of the power of an ancient spoken magic, Eilean is coming into her own. ...
