Growing up as an abandoned orphan on the doorstep of strangers earned Beldagar a life of servitude. He finds he has a strange talent to turn off the abusive voices of his heartless family, but all he longs for is equal footing among them.

For the first time his life seems to be altering, but in the twirling moment a strange sorceress shows up revealing to him a world of opportunity through her magic as well as warning of an ancient monstrous legend about to wake with in the heart of the mountain. The cursed sorceress foresees Rose’s death and offers him a deal to save her life.

An enjoyable book that had my cheering out loud by the end! (Persevere with the slow start)
I really enjoyed this story, which was different from most other books I'd read recently. It was a little slow to get going (hence the 4 stars), but once it did, it was very enjoyable, well-written, and you really felt engaged in the characters' stories - hating the witch and the bad guys, and rooting for the good guys! I won't give away what happens - hate spoilers! - but by the end, I felt really moved by poor Beldagar's plight, and the final twist had me cheering out loud! NB I got a free copy of this book as a member of the authors mailing list, in exchange for this HONEST review that is entirely my own opinion
What a lovely little story. TK never disappoints. Full of mystery, magic,intrigue, romance. All the ingredients of a great read. Couldn't put it down .
erified Purchase Overall it was an interesting story. However it didn't keep me as intrigued as the other Dark Eve stories. I think it could be a lot better if it had an editor
I loved the story line. Beldagar tries to save Rose, his beloved, from a spell his Mother put on him. He has to battle a flaming dragon, religious zealots among others. The story line keeps you interested throughout the entire book.
