Publisher's summary

I've been cursed, betrayed, and sold into slavery—but the truth I carry can't be allowed to die.

Only Rae knows the extent of the corruption at the heart of the kingdom of Menaiya, from the noble lord who betrayed her, to the Circle of Mages whose wards protect the slavers from discovery. Injured and imprisoned on a slave ship, Rae's options are quickly running out. When a desperate escape attempt goes terribly wrong, she finds herself indebted to a terrifying Fae sorceress.

Now Rae will not rest until she has rescued her fellow prisoners and freed her land from the darkness that has taken hold. To succeed, she'll need every ally she can find—including Bren, the thief who may have stolen her heart. But Bren is hiding his own bloody secrets, and the curses that encircle Rae have sunk their claws into her mind. With her debts coming due and time running short, all the truths in the world may not be enough to save her kingdom, or herself.

Beautiful storytelling

I loved this book just as much as the first two! It’s beautifully written and conveys so much emotion in an honest and vivid way. I highly recommend this book, along with her others!

I adore this series

I'm not going to be specific. I'm just going to say that the world is rich, the characters are believable, and the story engaging. I read "Thorn" and was hooked. I was very happy to find that it was the first of a trilogy.

A wonderful book

This book series is incredible. There is wonderful character development, friendship, betrayal, love, adventure, rescues, and resilience. A Darkness at the Door is my favorite in the series. Rae is not your typical heroine… she is so much more. Read this series, you will not regret it.
