USA Today and New York Times bestselling author C. L. Wilson’s hugely popular, epic romantasy series about a beautiful girl who would be queen, the Fey King, and their eternal battle for true love in the mystical Fading Lands.
Once he drove back the darkness. Once he loved with such passion his name was legend.
Once, driven wild with grief over the murder of his beloved, the majestic Fey King Rain Tairen Soul had laid waste to the world before vanishing into the Fading Lands. Now, a thousand years later, a new threat draws him back into the world—and a new love reawakens the heart he thought long-dead.
Ellysetta, a woodcarver’s daughter, calls to Rain in a way no other ever has. Mysterious and magical, her soul beckons him with a compelling, seductive song—and no matter the cost, the wildness in his blood will not be denied. As an ancient, familiar evil regains its strength, causing centuries-old alliances to crumble and threatening doom for Rain and his people, he must claim his true mate to embrace the destiny woven for them both in the mists of time.

"I picked this one up based on the excerpt in the back of one of Nalini Singh's books. For some reason, it grabbed me from the get-go. I wasn't sure about the lord of the rings meets flying cats set up, but it definitely won me over. Another thing I was hesitant about was the spanning of this story over four books...maybe I have a short attention span, but I usually like to have the story told in one shot. It was hard for me to picture there being enough story to sustain four full volumes, but there sure is. Each subsequent installment is just as interesting as the first. I loved both Rain and the originality of the story, Ellie was quite charming, and the drama and romance were well done (although I do want to boot both the mother and the twin brats in the ass most of the time). A great start to the series."
