LYNN M. DAVIS
WELCOME TO ELDRYTH,
A NAME THE WORLD FORGOT
Legend claims that Wellen Baracchus, with fewer than a hundred knights, breached the walls of Droichead castle and ended the malefic rule of Wraeth Korrigan.
The ballads sung in Vaelen's taverns and great halls confirm it.
Droichead’s library tells a different story.
Riognach “Ree” Baracchus has read every tome, and she knows what is absent from those shelves: any record of the king her great-grandfather deposed. Any account of how Wellen ruled once Vaelen's crown was his.
So Ree goes in search of records thought lost in the great fire of Radomiri, and must bear the weight of the devastating truths she discovers.
Fynn, her childhood friend, the one who secretly trains her in swordcraft, the one oath-sworn to protect her, will stand between her and every danger, until her brother Ronan claims that oath, and all it guards, for himself.
Graesen, a renowned pit fighter who carries himself like a man born to more, harbours secrets of his own. He makes Ree want what no king’s daughter should, and his secrets will unmake everything she believes.
And an ancient, long-feared power is stirring in Ree’s blood, and it is done waiting.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Lynn M. Davis writes dark fantasy from Southwestern Ontario, Canada. Her love of story began at a locked, glass-fronted bookcase in her grandmother’s hallway, where every book was made more irresistible by being forbidden.
She subscribes to Elizabeth Gilbert's theory that stories go looking for the right person to tell them. Lynn is grateful that Ree, Graesen, Fynn, Ronan, and the rest of the Crown of Lies cast chose her, and even more grateful for their patience while she worked to get it right.
Lynn is the founder of Rare Byrd 3 Inc., a company that will put proceeds from the sale of her work toward literacy and food education.
