Know More

When Telyn’s song magic freed ancient spirits of the Wood, it also awakened a long-slumbering evil. Now she and her beloved Mithrais must battle a spreading shadow that ignites crippling fear, and deal with the unexpected consequences of magic’s return.

More danger arrives with a royal delegation to the forest realm, sweeping Telyn back into court intrigue and the sights of a murderous lord. Mithrais may be forced to choose between his service to the Wood or the obligations of his royal blood.

As Telyn’s bond with Mithrais grows, she is torn between her love for him and the freedom of a wandering bard’s life. But when dark magic plunges the Wood into chaos, she must balance the two halves of her heart—or the Fates may take Mithrais from her forever.

A Word from the Author

Telyn and her beloved Mithrais have their hands full dealing with the unexpected consequences of magic’s return. The Gwaith’orn aren’t the only magical beings to awaken with her spell—something dark and sinister has returned. A shadow of evil stalks the people of the Wood. Telyn’s heart is torn between the wandering life of a bard, and her love for Mithrais. He has his own choices to face as the arrival of a royal delegation confirms he cannot avoid the responsibilities of his noble blood, and brings the very man responsible for the price on Telyn’s head within a blade’s reach of the young bard. If Telyn cannot reconcile her divided heart, the Fates may make the choice for her, and take Mithrais from her forever. TRUTHSONG continues the Songmaker’s tale, with all the magic, danger and romance of the first book.
