DESCRIPTION:
But a more devastating destiny awaits Sebastian, for in the quiet gardens of the Landscapers' school, evil is stirring. National bestselling author Anne Bishop's provocative hardcover debut, set in a darkly romantic, ever-changing world. A world of shifting lands connected only by bridges, Ephemera has been kept stable by the magic of the Landscapers. The nearly forgotten Eater of the World has escaped its prison-and Sebastian's realm may be the first to fall.. In one land where night reigns and demons dwell, the half-incubus Sebastian revels in dark delights. But then in dreams she calls to him: a woman who wants only to be safe and loved-a woman he hungers for while knowing he may destroy her
Great story! Susan L Merrow I love Anne Bishop's stories. I haven't read them all yet. But am sure I'll love all of them. She has a gift for writing fantasy & romance together. I hope she adds more books to each of her collections soon!. "Love!" according to Kyung Combs. Love love love this book! The imagery is amazing.. Amazon Customer said Dark and Satisfying. This is a great story in the world of Ephemera. Sebastian is an engaging character, struggling to realize his own true potential with the help of a mixed lot of friends. Trouble tends to find him whether he wants it to or not and the storey overall is incredibly addictive. Anne Bishop's style is top notch as ever. I love this series and continue to read it repeatedly.
Bishop's pure originality and lyrical prose bolster the occasionally uneven characterization, and the tender romances and friendships will delight fantasy readers tired of gore and lust. All rights reserved. The maid is Lynnea and the succubus is Sebastian, and their unlikely romance is at the heart of the impressively unclichéd battle between light and dark raging through the world called Ephemera, where the land changes in response to the deepest desires and fears of the inhabitants. . Now a foolish student has set it free, and Sebastian must help his cousins, Glorianna and Lee, a Landscaper and a Bridge of unusual power and talents respectively, to trap or destroy it. From Publishers WeeklyStarred Review. Sweeping onto the scene with flair and grace, this latest page-turner from bestseller Bishop (Dreams Made Flesh) flutters its eyelashes at you like a shy country maid and then sinks its teeth in like a hungry succubus.
