THE EPIC CONCLUSION TO THE #1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING ELEMENTS OF CADENCE DUOLOGY
The stunning sequel to A River Enchanted finds the delicate balance between the human and faerie realm threatened by Bane, the spirit of the North Wind, whose defeat can only come through fire, song, and heartrending sacrifice.
East and west. Humans and spirits.
The tenuous balance of the Isle of Cadence is under threat from Bane, the spirit of the north wind.
In the west, Adaira struggles to find her place. And, though magic blooms there, the spirits suffer beneath Banes harsh power, felt in every gust of wind.
In the east, Jack Tamerlaine is adrift without Adaira, until he acquires a mission destined to lead him back to her. But among the Tamerlaines sickness is spreading and Torin desperately strikes a bargain with the spirits a folly at any time.
With their very land at risk, all will need to join together to confront Bane. Yet none can challenge the north wind without paying a terrible price, and the sacrifice required may be more than they can bear
PRAISE FOR THE ELEMENTS OF CADENCE DUOLOGY
With lush worldbuilding and lyrical prose, A RIVER ENCHANTED feels like the echo of a folktale from a world right next to our own
Hannah Whitten, NYT bestselling author of FOR THE WOLF
"An alluring and rich tale, at once a fast-paced mystery and a love story as warm as a hearth. Like music, it will bewitch your senses, carrying you to the wind-swept hills and effervescent waters of the isle of Cadence. A RIVER ENCHANTED made me homesick for places I've never been. This is a classic in the making
Ava Reid, internationally bestselling author of THE WOLF AND THE WOODSMAN
Ross has built a fully realized world clearly inspired by Scottish myth and legend and thick with heroes. . . A rich fantasy of bards and bairns in which the magical island setting becomes the main character
KIRKUS REVIEWS (starred)
Vividly imagined . . . This will appeal to lovers of fantasy from NAME OF THE WIND to the Earthsea series
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A sublime mix of romance, intrigue and myth, A RIVER ENCHANTED is a stunning addition to the canon of Celtic-inspired fantasy. With its lyrical prose and tight world building, this story is both modern and timeless, drawing from the traditions of genre greats like Steven Lawhead and marrying them to the sensibilities of modern works like Genevieve Gornichecs THE WITCHS HEART and Tana Frenchs IN THE WOODS
