In Eldritch by Keri Lake, Maevyth and Zevander are plunged into a grim new reality when eldritch magic rises, infecting the mortal world with darkness, cold, famine, and flesh-eating monsters. Havoc spreads like a plague, and the last flicker of hope in Foxglove Parish has nearly died. To survive, Maevyth and Zevander are forced on a perilous journey through The Eating Woods. Stepping over mystical borders toward Aethyria, they discover that leaving Mortasia may be more difficult—and more dangerous—than they ever imagined.

As Maevyth’s hidden past resurfaces, secrets unravel in disturbing clarity, and Zevander begins to succumb to madness from being deprived of vital vivicantem in the mortal lands. Fate spins a tangled web, shadows chase them, and the boundary between hunter and hunted blurs. Maevyth may lack the power this time to save him. Eldritch by Keri Lake weaves dark romance, high-stakes fantasy, and creeping horror into a haunting tale of love, magic, and survival¹.
