The Shadebinder's Oath
Farren,
a journeyman cabinetmaker, sees the dead. He can’t help it:
they walk, they talk, they nag and complain. His neighbors view
him with dark suspicion. Is he a Shadebinder, a sorcerer who
enslaves the souls of the dead for evil purposes?
Mericia, Princess of Ailsandia, is cursed.
Everyone she loves, or treats kindly, either dies or suffers horribly.
Caprio, the Goat apparition, has a hobby.
He dips his cloven forehoof into serious affairs of mortals and stirs
them ups, just to see what happens.
In a tale of ancient secrets, knights and pirates, suspense and madness,
the three strive to release their nation and their families from the
grip of hidden sorcerors, bound on revenge for a generations-old sin.
Farren and Mericia are thrown together to solve an intricate web
of deceit and treachery, which can only be solved through The
Shadebinder’s Oath.
