Four titans sleep beneath the earth. Only one fae can keep them from waking.

Silbrey is an orphaned wood nymph, taken from her forest home and raised in the corrupt city of Penderyn. The fae child grows up unaware of who she is, what she can do and the calling of her kind.

Under the control of a cruel guildmaster, Silbrey is trained as an assassin. As an adult, she escapes her violent past to start a new life and a family. But a tragic death brings her back to the familiar cobbled streets to seek revenge.

This dark path leads Silbrey to uncover an even darker secret — an ancient evil will wake the titans and break the world. Silbrey must travel with her daughter across a war-torn land to defeat that evil.

What begins as a fairy tale transforms into a multi-generational epic fantasy about love, loss and a woman with a strange connection to nature.

The Dryad's Crown is an emotional, coming-of-age fantasy debut. The first volume in a gritty saga, set in the immersive world of Efre Ousel.

Booklife describes the story as "a fantasy unlike any other."
