The Necromancer’s Daughter

Aster is a stillborn infant from the king and queen of Verdane. She has been brought to life by a necromancer, Barus, who raises her as his own and teaches her the ways of a healer. Her life is the way it should be, however, once Aster gets older, she Oinds out everything she comes to know about her life is a lie. Aster’s real father comes back for her, but that is where the real adventure begins. Aster’s father explains to her how she is an heir to the throne of his kingdom, and if she doesn’t accept her role, then the kingdom is doomed to fall. Aster is torn between two worlds of a necromancer and a world who hunts and is against necromancers and the practice of magic. Aster’s father is near death, and the only way to save him – even though Aster might not want to – is to go to the kingdom and take her position. So what will Aster choose? Will she choose to stay with Barus, the necromancer who has brought her back to life, or her real father, the king, who is on the verge of death?

Intriguing, funny, and engaging, this fantasy story has all the right Olavors to tickle one’s taste buds.

The plot is complex but so quirky and intriguing that the reader is happy to be pulled along for the ride. The characters are well-developed, and the realms are tangible.
