Once, Wydoria was free. Now it's ruled by the magic-denying Consistorium and cut off from the rest of the world by an impenetrable Hedge.Daphne Mayne can't sit around while her brother, Daniel, lies dying.Especially when all she has to do to save him is fetch a handful of berries an old healer said would cure him. The catch?The berries grow in a forest on the other side of the Hedge. Crossing the Hedge is forbidden.
She has to try, though. It's the only chance Daniel has. When her efforts attract the attention of the Consistorium's magic-hunting Hounds, Daphne is aided by a mysterious gray woman. But being on the other side of the Hedge thrusts her into danger when a band of goblins captures her, and drags her unwillingly along with them on their secretive quest. Daphne struggles to keep hope alive as she and her kidnappers clash with trolls, slavers, monsters, and caves filled with deadly traps.
With her freedom slipping further away with every step, Daphne tries to cope with a bewildering magic power emerging inside her, and to find a way to prevent the goblins fulfilling their evil quest. And to return home to save her brother. You'll love this book if you enjoy tales of courage, magic and adventure with a strong female lead.
