A menacing watcher lurks in the citadel—with twisted sorcery as a guard.
The citadel at Saet'Idros Archais guarded a passage from the Wastes into the Great Vale. After centuries of duty, the Fae, Enclave wizards, and mundane men abandoned the outpost … then people began to vanish.
The half-Fae healer Inkeri, Baron Rhodren, and his men crossed old bones to discover the whereabouts of a missing caravan and two troops.
Yet a presence watches their entry into the citadel, a presence more terrible than twisted sorcerers, their shape-shifting wyre, and a traitorous Dark Fae.
Both Inkeri and Rhodren sense the watcher, but neither anticipates the dire threat it represents.
How many will die before the missing are found?

She writes determined heroines and strong heroes, both with internal conflicts as dire as the sorcerers and monsters that confront them.
The first trilogy in the Fae Mark'd World is Spells of Air. The young wizard Orielle encounters the proud Dark Fae Lord Skull and Lady Bone as well as a pack of shifted wyre enslaved by a sorceress.
Recently finished is Spells of Earth. Wizardry burnt out and memory gone, Desora re-built her life in an isolated corner of the Northern Reaches. She only elemental Earth. Can she discover new ways to wield Earth before she and Brax become prey for twisted sorcery and magical monsters?
Look for more of Remi Black's fantasy with magical protagonists struggling against twisted sorcery and monsters magical and mundane.
