Description of the book:
Kala is a normal young woman living in London, who is later taken by a man with whom she has a small rivalry, Whitlock. He brings her to a magical land called Asmen, filled with fairies and goblins, centaurs and imps. In Asmen, Kala is quickly lured and her desire for home is vanquished. She meets two friends of Whitlocks, Otis and Adylen, whom he met during his struggle in being accepted. Very soon after they get to Asmen, Whitlock explains what he knows about the land and it's history. The two stay there, making themselves comfortable and getting to know more fey. That is when Kala meets the village's crazy goblin who tells her of corruption in the royal family, about the oldest prince, Lycidas, and how he will attempt to put a curse on the land and control all the people there. Kala and Whitlock must put their differences aside and work together, and, with the aid of Otis and Adylen, defeat Lycidas and save the kingdom. But what does this mean for Kala? Might she have to change herself? Will she risk everyone and everything for the draw of her greed?

Blurb from the book:
"As he walked over to me, crown in my hands, I knew what I had to do. All these years I've put up with him and his selfishness, yet he suddenly decides to become brave for Asmen? He wants to be their hero, their saviour? I don't think so. He gets closer, and I can see the hungry gleam of his eyes, the malicious smile on his face. He was never doing this to be fair, never once cared for the people, the land.
He wants the power."
