About the book
The King's lottery has determined that Twilla, the young orphaned apprentice of a renowned wise woman, must marry, for only the wedded can survive the terrible fate awaiting those attempting to colonize a far-off forest. After altering her looks by a talisman of great power, she escapes her unwanted husband and joins a commander's tragically blinded son on a remarkable journey from peril to peril. They must rescue the colonists and the native elves of the forest from a terrible enemy awakened by the elves' infighting and the colonists' careless actions. One of the Five Senses quartet.
