The Book of Bone

A novelette of curses and journeys.


Avice's dreams of settling at Clearwater are dashed.  The lawsuit had ended, and the lands were made over to her, but a bone wizard lays a curse on the land, and blight begins to spread.  All will die before the curse as it spreads.


Neither her family nor her king are willing to help.  She is left alone with only the knowledge that the mysterious Book of Bone may have the lore that she needs -- if only she can find it.
