The Knight, the Harp, and the Maiden

When Lady Juilene rejects a marriage proposal from the evil thurge Lindos, the wizard casts a spell that forces the young noblewoman to flee her family, friends, even kind strangers. For the curse destroys anyone who helps her. Love will break the spell - but Juilene's betrothed lies murdered by Lindos. Left with just a harp and her talent as a Songsayer, Juilene is a forlorn exile in a land on the brink of apocalypse.

For Lindos has mastered the magic to turn 10,000 years of peace into a regime of horror. And the one person who can stop the thurge - and end Juilene's curse - is a myth from an impossible prophecy.
