Short Synopsis
Jamie Thomas presents Book 1 in the Asperfell Trilogy.

Full Synopsis
"A haunting and beautifully written gothic tale, which [ . . . ] will inspire and hearten both adult and young adult readers." —NATALIE JENNER, internationally bestselling author of The Jane Austen Society

Only the darkest and most dangerous of Mages are sentenced to pass through the gate to Asperfell. Not one has ever returned.

Briony never dreamed she might set foot in the otherworldly prison. She was, after all, neither Mage nor criminal. She was simply her father's little whirlwind—fingers smudged with ink, dresses caked with mud—forever lost in a book or the spirit-haunted woods surrounding her family's country estate.

But Briony always had a knack for showing up where she was least expected.

Only by braving the gate of Asperfell could Briony hope to find the true heir to the throne of Tiralaen and save her kingdom from civil war. And so, she plunges into a world of caged madmen and demented spirits, of dark magic and cryptic whispers . . . and of a bleak and broken prince with no interest in being rescued.

Hauntingly beautiful and lavishly told, Asperfell is a must-listen for fans of Jane Austen who always wished she'd dabbled in blood magic.
