Shadow Magic

(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Ben Hibon. Thorn, a peasant, an archer, and an outlaw far from home, becomes an executioner's apprentice and a friend to thirteen-year-old Lady Lilith Shadow, a would-be sorceress trying to save her homeland after her family is assassinated. Character development takes a back seat to action, but this dark fantasy cauldron brims with spooky castles, ancient relics, fantastic beasts, necromancy, and an extra helping of murder.
