Synopsis:

A story can be freedom. A story can be prison.

In service to the mysterious Pale Queen, a poet-warrior navigates a world of magic, carrying a weapon created to kill gods.

Seren searches for his lost lover, striving to find her before the coming of the Never-Was. He writes in a secret notebook about encounters with friend and foe, hoping to make sense of these entangling threads. With his lion companion at his side, Seren seeks truth at all costs.

In a world where the lives of humans and gods are bonded, a single quest can encompass all.

The Pale Queen is a non-traditional way of conveying a fantasy story and I think of it as a living myth. It is probably more suitable for fans of Studio Ghibli (Miyazaki) and Life of Pi (Martel) rather than Lord of the Rings (Tolkien) or Harry Potter (Rowling). Although, there is bound to be some overlap.

The story is on the shorter side yet is action packed and full of gods, beasts and magic. The style is flowing and poetic, with the goal of creating a unique experience for the reader.
