What this book is about
C.L. Wilson's first Tairen Soul novel follows Rain, the last of the tairen-shifters and king of the Fey, who after a thousand years of grief recognizes a young woodcarver's daughter named Ellysetta as his truemate. Wilson combines epic fantasy world-building with intense romantic elements. The novel establishes an elaborate mythology of fey, tairen, and the dark Eld with adult romantic content appropriate to the fantasy romance genre.
