Darkling

How far would you go to save your family? Midsummer used to be a day of feasts and bonfires. A day when cares were set aside for the joy of grass between our toes, warm hands in our palms, laughter in our hearts. Our celebrations dimmed with the light. Something upset the balance of our woods. Something so deep that even our bonfires can't lure the sun back. And he has something to do with it. Of that, we're sure, which is why I'm being given to him. This special 10th Anniversary Edition of K.M. Rice's suspenseful debut novel about a young woman's sacrifice to save her village and the unexpected strength that comes from first love includes a bonus short story, "Willow's Dream." The quasi-sequel and companion novel to Darkling is The Watcher. Fantasy author K.M. (Kellie) Rice has ten published books and is a national award-winning screenwriter. Her stories defy literary conventions while taking readers on journeys that feel both familiar and strange.
