Prelude
A HOPE, LONG EXTINGUISHED, RESURRECTED IN THE NOTES OF A WITCH’S SONG
​
Wren Nocturne, a long-dead witch, wakes up cold, alone, but very much alive on the floor of a haunted asylum, in a present where witches are naught but ash in the wind.
​
Bloodbound by a would-be coven, Wren rises, beholden to their dying wish for vengeance. But Wren’s past returns to haunt her as she crosses paths with her ex-lover, Kaito Miyazaki - the technomancer who betrayed her.
Wren’s journey to reclaim love, family, and self begins with a Prelude.
Praise for Prelude
"Prelude is a musical introduction, and the melody arches throughout the book with a stark simplicity. Tunes and songs and instruments play alongside characters and story so beautifully, the reader can practically hear the melody. With every hummed song, the reader feels connected to the world in which it belongs."
​
~Amazon Review
"I look forward to a sequel!"
~Goodreads Review
"It is a bit early yet to compare this series to others’, but I found myself thinking of Martin and Tolkien quite a bit. I can see this series easily becoming just as beloved and respected. I will certainly be picking up the next book."
​
~Goodreads Review by Beau Lake (Author of The Wolves of Wharton Series)
"Few books leave me unable to put them down - Prelude joins that list."
