Bound (Unabridged‪)‬

Rediscover the world of Aorea, where science and magic intermingle, and the line between reality and dream disappears. 

Two years after Destined left off, Mari, Gren, and Ruv return to Aorea to pay a debt. However, their plans quickly go awry, and they find themselves caught up in yet another adventure. Join the trio as they shapeshift their way through magical forests, challenge a trickster to a battle of wits, and meet a pair of siblings who could either become powerful new allies or deadly enemies.

Loosely inspired by Slavic mythology and folklore, Bound continues the adventures of Mari and her friends and takes place in between the first and second novels in the Circle series by M.A.I. Murray, whose background in language, folklore, and engineering combine with her military experience to add a fresh spin on old fantasy tropes. You may encounter unicorns and dragons in the land of Aorea, but they will not be the ones you expect.
