Since the last war, Aisling, a
shamaness, and other supernaturals like her have been
fighting for survival. They are different and it has become
essential that they hide what they are from society. Aisling
and her family do well in hiding until a priest comes to
find her. Against her wishes and certain she will not
survive, Aisling leaves her home with only her spirit guide
Aziel.
Aisling is needed to locate a missing
woman, to see if she is dead or not. In the process of
searching the Ghostlands, Aziel gives Aisling a name to call
for help. It is Zureal en Caym, a demon of the House of the
Scorpion, son of a demon prince. And he vows to kill her for
summoning him.
Zureal feels an urgency to find the one
who summoned him and destroy her before she can bind him to
her will. He is given permission to seek her out and has
every intention of killing her. But first he must locate a
stone tablet that could be detrimental to the Djin. And he
needs Aisling to help him find it.
As they search for the tablet and those
who are creating a substance called Ghost, they are drawn to
one another. Their attraction is forbidden by his people and
abhorred by hers. Both know this and fight the attraction
until they are swept away by the lust and the other deeper
feelings they have not acknowledged yet. Will they overcome
the barriers they face or will they succumb to the dangers
they are challenged by?
I’m new to urban fantasy. I’ve heard other people talk about
liking it. I have to say that, for me, Ghostland
was a great introduction. It has many of the elements that
make a book really stand out for me. Strong characters, an
intricate storyline and love that triumphs over all
obstacles. But there is so much more tugging at the edges of
my mind and imagination. The set up is there for more.
This is only the beginning of the story. I personally
can’t wait to see where it goes from here. I Joyfully
Recommend Ghostland. |
