About this title

Synopsis

The world is changing, perhaps not for the better.

The Doctor-Diviners, keepers of old lore and healing, are fading away as their craft is usurped by Science. Soon the workings of Medicine will be guided only by rationality, and the mystic arts of divination and calling out to the ancestors will be lost. The lowly apprentice and foundling Sen is one of the few who sees the value of the old ways, and seeks to preserve them. Raised by Grandmother Turani in the woods and speaking the old Ndeb tongue, she is skilled in her craft and diligent in her study.

But her path to becoming a Master Doctor-Diviner is interrupted when a chance meeting reveals her parents may not be unknown. The Lady Ravantha - brooding, damaged, and dangerous - believes Sen is her lost daughter. Sen believes otherwise, but visions of the past torment her dreams and unsettle her waking. And always, always, Jackal and Crow mock her with their laughter at how much she does not yet know.

Sen of the Woods wants nothing of the life being chosen for her, but she will have to step carefully around Ravantha. For she is a healer above all, and she will not ignore someone in pain.

APPRENTICE is the first book of the trilogy of Sen of the Woods, a story of pain, betrayal, and healing from past sins while the world shifts into a new Age of Reason.

About the Author

Mab Morris lives in Dahlonega, Georgia, with a number of cats and a Celtic labyrinth of her own design. Her storytelling and her love of fantasy began at a very young age, where she was drawn to Ursula K. Le Guin and J.R.R. Tolkien. Mythology, history, and folklore are her passion.

She writes mystical fantasy books set in the past, present and future of the world of Ihyel, where demi-gods and mortals alike struggle with their fate. She also writes the murder-mysteries of The Bone Reader, about Cemirowl who speaks with the dead, and the Regency adventures of gender-fluid spy Alex Goodward.
