Ebook versions (EPUB and PDF) are available to download to your favorite ebook reader.

Both versions are DRM-free and should be usable with most ebook readers. DRM-free means that these are yours to keep and also share with friends/family just like a physical book.

#WordWeavers What are beauty standards like in your world?

While Ethereal is a diverse Realm, with many cultures that each have a sense of beauty, no one understands what attracts Cedric and Freya to Sabre. He's striking but born halfway into the shadows and, at times, looks more like a creepy spectre than a person, so it's funny to Freya and Cedric to publicly, theatrically swoon for Sabre whenever he's being his disconcerting broody self.
