Withheld

A dying village, once a city, besieged by troops and beset by a disease that dwindles their number every year. Ostracia and all its horrors cannot be allowed to return to the world.

A girl with powers she does not want. A father desperate to protect her. A love, lost. The last Outsider in Ostracia doesn’t know she holds the fate of them all in her hands.

A fantasy novel both for those who read fantasy and those who do not. This is an apocalypse not of worlds and kingdoms, but of individual lives and those they touch.
