    Summary

    Some people think fairy tales are just that. Stories. Morality plays. Comforting little nothings telling you to stay on the path.

    Those who dwell in shadow and secret places of the world know better. But then again, no one did anything by staying on the path. Welcome to a world of darkness and secrets where there are no Shadows, only Thorns - and for eight escaped slaves of the lunatic nobility of the Fae, the closest thing to home they have any more. Being a hero is a beautiful madness.
