<p>A forbidden forest, hiding mysterious ruins and ancient sorceries.\nA royal family, torn apart by jealousy and betrayal.\nA legendary creature, whose appearance may save them all—or destroy the world.\nWelcome to the Mirrenwood…\nThe royal physician Zimenes is in a bind: his most important patient—and his best friend—King Adalmund is gravely ill and wasting away. A cure exists, but the medicine requires the powdered horn of a unicorn. But the king has sealed off the Mirrenwood forest, and refuses to allow the unicorn to be hunted, despite his friend’s urgent pleas.\nEverything changes when Adalmund’s daughter Vialle returns to the kingdom. Zimenes taught the young princess to read and write and cast the cards, but he hasn’t seen her since she left to continue her schooling. Vialle is determined to take charge of her father’s cure: she has hired hunters, horses, and hounds, and she persuades her father to open the Mirrenwood. She will be the lure, the “maiden of noble blood” required to draw the unicorn from hiding.\nWill the hunters find the creature they seek? Will they heal their king, and repair the fractured kingdom? Or does the maze-like Mirrenwood hide its own twisted desires? Join Zimenes, Vialle, and their companions on an epic quest that will take them into the dark heart of the Mirrenwood—and beyond.</p>

<p>THE DEADLIEST PREDATOR ALIVE HAS TWO LEGS IN THIS STRIPPED-DOWN STRUGGLE FOR SURVIVAL—A THRILLER WITH HEART.\nPrimorsky Krai—a remote wilderness in the Russian Far East encompassed by endless hills, vast forests, and long winters that bury the land in snow and silence. This is the last place in the world where Siberian tigers—otherwise known as AMBA to the indigenous Udege people—prowl in the wild.\nEx Elite Russian Special Forces Sniper Yuri Kaskilev has found home in the twelve-man Anti-Poaching Brigade in Primorsky Krai. Protecting the area’s great cats has given him a sense of purpose he’s never known before.\nBut when Yuri rescues two tiger cubs from their dying mother, he unleashes an unforeseen chain of events. As he and his partner rush the wriggling cubs to scientists at a nearby nature reserve, they come across three poachers heading to inspect their traps, and Yuri is startled to recognize one of them as a former comrade.\nSuddenly, the violent world Yuri thought he left behind is closer than ever…\nUntil he meets Dr. Miko Katanabe, one of the world’s leading tiger experts. As she attempts the unthinkable—training the motherless cubs and introducing them into the wild upon maturity—it becomes apparent that she may have found a way to bolster the jungle cats’ dwindling population. So, when one of the cubs escapes into the surrounding wild, Yuri and Miko chase after it in a desperate pursuit.\nAlong the way, these two proud and fiercely independent individuals must learn to work together to track the frightened cub while also surviving a night in sub-zero elements and fending off vicious attacks by a rogue tiger following their trail.\nWill Yuri discover the middle ground between peace and violence in order to save all AMBA and the woman he has come to love? Can Miko learn to trust Yuri and accept his violent past?</p>
