A Dark Beginning
When love becomes obsession, even death cannot stand in its way.
Kroviah's world shattered the night her sister Riah died. Now, consumed by grief and desperation, she delves into the forbidden arts of soul magic, seeking the power to bring back the one person who mattered most.
Every spell she casts, every dark ritual she performs, brings her closer to her goal and further from her humanity.
In the shadowed peaks of the Shadowpeak Mountains, ancient powers stir in response to her desperate pleas. When a mysterious vampire offers her the knowledge she seeks, Kroviah believes her prayers have been answered. But the price of resurrection may be higher than she ever imagined, and the path to salvation is paved with betrayal.
As forbidden magic courses through her veins and immortal entities whisper promises of power, Kroviah must choose between the sister she lost and the soul she's slowly sacrificing. In a world where vampires hunt in darkness and holy magic battles blood sorcery, the line between love and damnation grows ever thinner.
Some beginnings are written in blood. Others are carved from the very essence of the soul.
A Dark Beginning plunges readers into a tale of grief, forbidden magic, and the terrible cost of trying to cheat death itself.
A gripping prequel to the Evercure Series, by M.R.KELLY

About the author
M.R. Kelly
11 books29 followersHello, thanks for giving this a read. Just a little about me.
I'm from the West Midlands, United Kingdom and I've loved Fantasy books ever since I could remember.
One of my favourite series is by Raymond E. Feist. That long set of books spread over many series started the backbone of my reading life, and I've branched out from there. You can’t beat a good fantasy book that draws you in.
But I don't just read Fantasy books, but Sci Fi and some Horror as well. Brian Lumley is one of my favourite Horror authors. Got to love his Necroscope series.
Sci fi wise, I've currently embarked on reading the Horus Heresy Books, so any WH40K fans want to chat come find me on my Facebook page.

Another Sci Fi favourite of mine are the Commonwealth books by Peter F Hamilton. Something about them speaks to me, almost as if we’re just short of springing into space as a Race now. I hope I see humans living on other planets before my time here is done.
But… Back to my books. I've got a lot planned for this series of mine, lots of spin offs, prequel books and further exploration of my world. So please follow me and keep your eyes peeled for my new releases.
