Secret of the Thistle (Rainfallen Book 2)

There’s nothing more dangerous than a paranoid king.

Wickerton is in peril. Obsessed with the idea of an attack coming from the Bright Crown of Northumbria, the Unholy King keeps raising taxes to pay for an ever-expanding army. But such an attack will never come. With taxes on the rise, and no money to pay the collector, Fay must find a small fortune within a month or Wickerton’s canvas shelter will be torn down as punishment.

While Galahad languishes in the dark of New London, a bloody letter arrives from the north: Elaine is in trouble. Despite everything that’s happened between them, Galahad can’t help but to rush to her aid. Now he must travel to the origin of the magic that stained his eyes the colour of whisky, and try to save the woman he both hates and loves.

Each must do their best to slay new monsters, face old enemies, and reforge broken relationships.
It’s time to fight for the things that matter.

Praise for the Rainfallen series:

“Aeveryn’s prose deserves a mention, as it is a strange mix that features some lyrical expressions, that are perfect for transmitting that knighthood feeling, and more plain language; a prose that feels like a reflection of the own Rainfallen world.” — JamReads

“A mash-up of Grimdark fantasy and post-apocalyptic thriller, with clear horror and sci-fi influences. The combination works a treat, being glued together by a noir-esque tone. It’s gritty and sardonic, Abercrombie-like.” — Nick P (TheBookScene)
