"Eilean was born a "wretched"--A lowly foundling raised by the Aldermaston of Tintern Abbey. Then she's chosen to assist in establishing the new abbey of Muirwood, now the site of a castle in the swampy Bearden Muir. Eilean's role is as night servant to the druid Mordaunt, the king's exiled advisor--and prisoner. He's clever, dangerous, and invaluable to the Aldermaston. Mordaunt's priceless secret: the hiding place of an ancient tome that reveals the existence of other worlds and the magic between them. Mordaunt knows how potent its words are and how dangerous they could be in the wrong hands. But can Eilean win him over? All she must do is gain Mordaunt's confidence and trust and persuade the apostate to divulge his secret to her. But as she learns more from Mordaunt, Eilean's loyalties begin to fray. And the risks are greater than she imagined. Despite betrayals, deceptions, and the deadly motivations of others, a girl from the flax fields is about to rise above her station. By exploring the potential of the power of an ancient spoken magic, Eilean is coming into her own."--… (más)

I love coming back to Muirwood since the Muirwood series was the first series I read by Jeff Wheeler and it's one of my favorites. Of course, I enjoy and think all of his books are fantastic and action-packed stories with swoon-worthy romances and a lot of great morals and lessons incorporated into the messages in the stories with the individual growth of each of the characters.
I listened to this one on audio and I love Kate Rudd, she is one of the best narrators and she has incredible talent for doing audiobooks. If you haven't listened to an audiobook by Kate Rudd yet then you should. She's one of the best! She really makes Muirwood and the characters and everything come alive with this story like all the others she's done too.
This story is a bit different than the other Muirwood series and still awesome. I love seeing how Muirwood came to be and going back in time and seeing things with this character, Eilean and how she comes to be the servant to the druid, Mordaunt and then starts to learn how to use her talents, skills and magic as she finds her place with playing her role and doing what she's meant to do. There are betrayals, secrets and things aren't always as clear cut as they appear to be - it's a bit confusing as to who really is the bad guy or the good guy in this one at first and I love how it all plays out.
Make sure to check this one out especially with the second book of this series, The Hunted, coming out today! I highly recommend checking this one out so you're ready for the next one. ( )

This is the first book I've read by this author, and I will now go and find the rest of his books to read! It is a first in series that really gets it's hooks into you and leaves you wanting more. The next book can't come soon enough!!
Mordaunt the druid, is a prisoner who is cunning and clever, he has hidden something everyone wants. Eilean a "wretched" is tasked with winning over Mordant and getting him to tell her where it is. Everything isn't as cut and dry as she believed, and maybe those whom she is loyal to aren't what they seem. Will Eilean manage to do what is tasked of her?
Thanks to 47North and NetGalley for the ARC. ( )
