Publisher Description
The night Claire Tanith's small village is attacked, her mother sends her alone into the cursed forest, the one she'd been forbidden to enter all her life with these mysterious words: 'They will protect you.'
On the run from her attackers, she soon finds the forest is not as abandoned as she'd once thought.
Beautiful and elegant, the elves seem to be everything the legends said they would be. But legends sometimes forget the true history of things and Claire's eyes are soon opened to a world she never knew. One that has been kept from her for most of her life. All Claire wants to do is return home and start looking for her mother, the only family she ever had. But the elves have different plans. The mysterious mark that appeared on her arm isn't a curse, at least not to them anyway, and before she knows it, she is whisked away on a mission she never agreed to, unless they help her in return.
Now she is stuck on an adventure with the perverted elf, Aeron, and one with an attitude, Farron. But there is more to this adventure than she'd ever hoped for.
Customer Reviews
Interesting
First off, the book was great, hence my review, but the ending feels too abrupt. The story was still going strong until they made the abrupt change in character with the general. I liked the ending, but I feel as though we should have been more eased into it. Overall, the book was great! I loved the development of Ferran’s character and the book starts off with a bang, grabbing my attention from the start. I couldn’t put it down!

Exciting and interesting a good read
Conflicting
I actually enjoyed the story and some of the characters. However, like some of the negative reviews, the main character was so frustrating and self centered.
Spoiler: The elves had pointed out that the general was suspicious and Claire ignored their warnings. She excused his bad behavior.
As much as I like justice desserts, Claire almost dying was a bit much.
It literally took her almost dying to realize Farron was on her side and liked her!
