“This is a book for writers, romantics, and, yes, coffee lovers. It is a book for connoisseurs of (so far) mostly Western myths, especially the Celtic legendarium. And it is a book for those who love to share stories around a campfire. I’m fond of older protagonists in fantasy tales – not that I don’t enjoy a good coming of age story but the genre is saturated with them. Chloe is a believable unwitting and reluctant middle-aged hero, never quite sure what she’s getting into and often a hair’s breadth from giving the whole thing up. I liked the fresh treatment of the library and secret society concepts, and can definitely relate to Chloe as a writer if not a coffee addict! I’m not a romance reader per se, but the revealed and developing relationships seemed natural to me. The telling of stories is a natural part of the tale – perhaps echoes of Tolkien there – and I looked forward to each one, and the light they shed on the plot. I’m cheering for Chloe and her companions and l look forward to the next book in the series!”

How far into the darkness are you willing to go to find the truth?

Three things I was sure of:
First, I was not a Hero.
Second, magic still existed.
And third, I was willing to walk through the Gates of Hell for my friends.

For years, Chloe has hidden from the shadows of her past, trying to escape its haunting. That is all about to change when she discovers a note taped to her front door inviting her to join The Raven Society.

Thousands of years ago, the Raven Society was created to protect, maintain, and preserve history deemed too dangerous for society. Their priceless secret? The Book of the Veiled. Its discovery could open Pandora’s box of consequences, for whoever holds it can rewrite history and change the course of the future.

And it has been stolen.

The Raven Society’s search for the book must survive the Gates of the Otherworld, betrayals, deception, and deadly motivations. But, in the end, they will realize that myths and fables aren’t just bedtime stories but stories of forgotten lives that have been driven into the shadows.

How far into the darkness would you be willing to travel to discover the truth?
