Wretched of Muirwood
Wretched of Muirwood | Jeff Wheeler
1 post | 12 read | 7 to read
In the ancient and mystical land of Muirwood, Lia has known only a life of servitude. Labeled a wretched, an outcast unwanted and unworthy of respect, Lia is forbidden to realize her dream to read or write. All but doomed, her days are spent toiling away as a kitchen slave under the charge of the Aldermaston, the Abbey s watchful overseer. But when an injured squire named Colvin is abandoned at the kitchen s doorstep, an opportunity arises. The nefarious Sheriff Almaguer soon starts a manhunt for Colvin, and Lia conspires to hide Colvin and change her fate. In the midst of a land torn by a treacherous war between a ruthless king and a rebel army, Lia finds herself on an ominous journey that will push her to wonder if her own hidden magic is enough to set things right. At once captivating, mysterious, and magic-infused, "The Wretched of Muirwood" takes the classic fantasy adventure and paints it with a story instantly epic, and yet, all its own."

Pickpick

I don't remember exactly who put me on to this writer. This is book one of a trilogy (his favorite format) and I enjoyed immersing myself in the world he has created. It's a fast read, but enjoyable nonetheless. Would be good/appropriate for young readers too.
