Athea was in haar eerste leven een krachtig wapen voor haar land als dodenbezweerder, met haar legers van lijken vocht ze in de oorlog om haar land te beschermen, maar ze eindigde publiekelijk geëxecuteerd als landverrader. In haar tweede leven kreeg ze de opdracht van de Dodengod om binnen een jaar de staf van Cyran, een haast vergeten God, te stelen. Verstrengeld met de Goden die ze zo verafschuwde, herontdekte ze niet alleen het land, maar ook haarzelf. Langzaamaan ontrafelde ze elk geheim over haar vervloekte gave. Maar onwetendheid is soms een gift die je niet weg moet nemen. ~ Wattys Winnaar Fantasy 2021 ~

~All magic Comes With a price...~ 'Laat me eruit!' schreeuw ik. 'Alsjeblieft!' smeek ik nog een keer. Mijn stem is zo dik als de mist in mijn hoofd. Ergens in mijn hoofd weet ik heus wel dat niemand me kan horen, maar ik moet het proberen. De kettingen om mijn polsen en enkels, rinkelen bij elke beweging die ik maak. Het is een frustrerend geluid. Ik wordt er knettergek van. Rode striemen sieren mijn spierwitte huid. Ik heb trek, ben moe en heb hartstikke veel pijn. Ik ga dood. 'Help!' roep ik voor de zoveelste keer. Ik ben er klaar mee. Ik hou dit niet vol. En dan roep ik de woorden. De woorden waarvoor ik had gezworen om ze nooit uit te spreken: 'Ik geef me over.' Er gebeurd niks. De mist in mijn hoofd wordt dikker en ik weet dat ik niet lang meer heb. Mijn benen begeven het en mijn hoofd bonkt pijnlijk. Mijn ademhaling is onregelmatig. En dan, als ik het net wil opgeven-me wil overgeven aan het duister- gaat de deur open en schijnt er fel, wit licht in mijn ogen... °~°~° Lillian Cooper. Een lastig zeventienjarig weeskind.

When her friend is wrongly sacrificed to a sinister forest, a girl tricks a demon prince into helping her reveal a powerful priest's twisted nature and rid the land of a mysterious blight rotting the crops and turning the people of Belle Parish mad. --- Seventeen-year-old Eloise Marlow is supposed to be on her best behavior as the newest Debutante in Belle Parish, according to her mother. When she comes of age, she'll be married off to a boy from a wealthy estate, but only if she follows the rules and keeps her nose where it belongs. In a gossip-fueled southern parish where the rich pull the strings behind the overreaching church, it's nearly impossible for Eloise to mind her own business. After a night of juvenile mistakes, Eloise finds herself at the judgment of her closest friend. Caught with a boy while unbetrothed, her friend is banished into Dreadwood, a sinister forest where demons are whispered to rule. Father McRae, sentencer and head priest, preaches that sacrifices and ridding the parish of any impure keeps their crops bountiful and their health pristine. The parish eats up his words, but Eloise notices how the boy her friend was with goes unpunished, how they all seem to go unpunished while girls are tossed to the forest for their alleged witchery. Determined to reveal Father McRae's wicked ways, Eloise sets off on a perilous path filled with secrets, betrayal, and an evil so vast it could swallow her whole. But when she tricks a darkly charming demon prince into helping her, she doesn't know what is more dangerous to her anymore--him or Dreadwood.
