When you're a princess of the dead, your family has deadly secrets. ★★★★★ "If Tim Burton had written Lord of the Rings" - Vincent E.M. Thorn, 5-star review for Willow of Ashes, book 1 of the NecroSeam Chronicles Princess Willow thought training her magic would be her greatest challenge. She was very, very wrong. Even as a young girl, Princess Willow has struggled with her magical studies, especially in the arcane arts of raising the dead. Being the daughter of the Death King and a princess of the Dream kingdom, the world expects great things from her. But can she deliver? Although she's already surpassed her peers in the martial art of the scythe and is ready to join her father on her first demon hunt, she fears her ineptitude with magic will be her downfall if she doesn't improve, and quickly. But while she obsesses over her morbid studies, Willow starts to notice her mother is acting strange. Being a powerful oracle, her mother is always cryptic and mysterious, but she can't recall a time the queen was this shaken. While her father is focused on training Willow to be the next ruler of Grim, and Willow is becoming distracted by a charming new reaper boy in the kingdom, her mother has been scouring the shadows of the palace as if preparing for something ominous. If she's seen a vision of the future, Willow worries whatever is coming will have horrific consequences... and no amount of preparation will help.

In her underground home of cold caverns, it will one day be her duty to rule this Kingdom of Death and command her Reaper knights to guide all souls of the dead down to her caverns for their afterlife.

As a child born of two kingdoms, Death and Dream, some question her right to rule. Unexpectedly, one of her biggest supporters is a new Reaper-in-training boy with different colored eyes. Xavier and his twin brother Alex didn't know they would be dining with the royal family of Grim on their first day of moving within the palace grounds. And Xavier wasn't prepared to meet an enchanting young Death Princess, let alone one with six elements of magic. He and his brother would be lucky to have even one whole element, but the twins' abilities to raise the dead had been split at birth. Xavier can only use his magic on deceased souls. Alex can only resurrect decaying corpses. Halved magic has never been seen in the five realms, and the twins are considered crippled in the magic community when separated. Together, though, Willow and the twins may be capable of anything.But they aren't prepared for the 500 year old assassin waiting to be freed of his timeless prison within the Dream realm. He has sworn vengeance on the royal families of Death and Dream. And with an ancient, poisonous magic, he won't leave any souls alive.

MFM Why choose MC romance Please read Scab before reading Grim. If they think they can take our son from us, they're sorely mistaken. I'm not called Grim for nothing. I drop bodies. I take lives. I may as well be Death himself. I'm the monster even nightmares can't conjure. I'm coming for them, and I'm sparing no one. And if they've harmed even a single hair on our son's head... They'll wish I'd only killed them. **Please read the "note from the author" located at the front of the book before reading.

The play deals with relations between Native Americans and the first European settlers in America. Scholars have debated whether the piece is progressive in its depiction of the natives and have commented that the work reflects an emerging American dramatic and musical sensibility.
