Maren and the Story Breaker - Paperback

A gothic fantasy fantasy of unraveling stories, dangerous loyalties, and the cost of rewriting the past.

The realm of crooked revels and deadly bargains lies in ruins behind her. The Spirit who ruled it is gone from her side, but not from her dreams. And every night, when sleep finally takes her, the Court finds her again.

Across the northern roads of Mythrin, cities are burning. Refugees crowd the trade routes. Whispers spread of a sickness called the "mind-plague". And somewhere beyond the smoke and rumor, something ancient has begun to rewrite the world itself.

Maren has only one goal: return to Eldenwick before whatever is breaking the world reaches IT.

The only safe passage lies with a caravan of silk merchants led by the one person she never expected to see again: her childhood friend. Maren has learned what bargains with powerful men can cost but refusing him might cost even more.

Something older is moving through the cracks of every tale, bending fate, memory, and truth itself.

And it has been waiting for her.

For fans of Once Upon a Broken Heart, The Knight and the Moth, and The Cruel Prince, Maren and the Story Breaker continues the Gilded Fable series with sweeping journeys, slow-burn romantic tension, dangerous alliances, and a heroine who must decide whether she will repair the world... or help rewrite it.
