Indie Spotlight – Wither Thorn – Joy Lewis
I wanted to make a quick plug for Wither Thorn, by Joy Lewis. This is the first book in The Crest of the Blackthorn series. Look for it on BookBub starting next month. If you have KindleUnlimited, which you should if you don’t, you can read this book now for free. This is where my books will all land.
If Caia doesn’t escape, she’ll become an instrument of destruction.
Shadowed by her capable older sister, sixteen-year-old Caia would like nothing more than for the cursed magic bound to her family’s name to remain dormant inside her.
But the king has other plans.
Inside his fortress-like castle, King Arcturus has held the Blackthorn line captive for generations, and the birth of a second raiser in a single generation makes his court the envy and fear of the human and inhuman worlds.
The two necromancer sisters serve as more than trophies of his power; his plans include using them as instruments of war. When Caia discovers this future for her and escapes the castle that has been her cage, the king will stop at nothing to retrieve her before she flees the borders of Noverim.
I hope you enjoy this recommendation and, as always, you can find cool new books by Independent Authors in my Indie Spotlights.
