Wishes haunt. Monsters lurk. Souls fracture.
After the unthinkable shatters her world, Sorrel Zdraevit is driven from her homeland of Eisa into a foreign kingdom carved from living shadow. With her sister, Yulia, at her side, Sorrel must learn to endure a landscape where nightmares prowl the forests, political loyalties shift like smoke, and every step forward is dragged by the weight of grief.
Their reign has fallen. Their lives have been irreparably damaged beyond all recognition. Yet surrender is not an option.
With a small band of devoted allies, the once-princesses cross treacherous mountains, elude relentless enemies, and confront beasts born of darkness as they journey through the daunting realm of Kesgoldol. But the threats outside pale in comparison to the memories stalking them from within.
As truths unravel and long-buried wounds surface, Sorrel and Yulia must decide what they can bear to remember—and what they can no longer afford to believe. If they are to claim any hope of a future, they must first survive the shadows determined to claim them.
An intentionally paced, historically inspired fantasy of sisterhood, quiet strength, and the long road out of ruin, Within Forsaken Shadows continues the Fallen Reign series with emotional depth, perilous stakes, and heroines whose greatest powers are the courage to bear compassion in an unforgiving world.
