Breath of Avaril - Hardcover

by Heather Peck Quass (Author)

An epic fantasy adventure about destiny, sacrifice, and the cost of saving the world.

Laodan is a gifted centaur healer and Sentinel of the Shrines, sworn to preserve life. But when she is confronted by a wound even her magic cannot heal, her purpose-and her identity-begin to unravel.

Desperate to find the legendary cure of Avaril, Laodan leaves the sanctuary of Naiwe for the human realm she has only read about. Instead of mercy, she finds danger, war, and a divided world where compassion can be a liability-and survival may demand far more than healing.

As her quest falters, Laodan realizes healing alone will not save the world.

Torn between the healer she was raised to be and the protector the world now demands, Laodan must decide who she is willing to become-and what she is willing to sacrifice.
