Leaves of Holly Book – serie

The land of Mórceath is suffering. Crops are rotting and famine has spread throughout the realm, causing great distress across the three provinces. The once magnificent kingdom is steadily declining, magic is fading away and their connection to the Mother Goddess is at an all-time low. During a rare magical festival called The Reaping, a group of Newcomers arrive in Mórceath from a distant world. Traditionally, these Newcomers are set to work for the noble houses and are seen as little more than slaves. Among them, we have Ivy; a gentle but anxious girl of nineteen who finds her new life in servitude very difficult. But more challenges await her. She will come to play a major part in unravelling the mystery of the rot that currently plagues the realm, as well as possibly taking on an even greater task...if she proves herself worthy of it. Follow Ivy on her journey of self-acceptance, discovering friendships, romance and exploring the mysteries of divine magic.

After escaping the capital together, Ivy and Drystan are now fugitives and have taken refuge in the wilderness. As tensions are brewing between them following the events in the capital, Ivy questions whether she can trust him. But a secret mission is soon underway, and allies are few. In her quest to prove herself worthy again to the Mother Goddess, Ivy sets off to find the mythical place called Arden. With Drystan by her side, she must travel both the woodlands of Mórceath as well as the far seas to the empire of Miras - and there are plenty of obstacles on the way. In this second instalment of the Leaves of Holly trilogy, Ivy faces her greatest challenge yet. It is a journey of sacrifice and intrigue - but also of love and trust, loss and grief. Will she succeed in her mission? And how much is she willing to sacrifice for it?
