What an enjoyable read! Sorcha Faris and Merrick Chambers are deacons whose role is to protect humans from the undead (geists). Sorcha is the strongest fighting deacon in the order and Merrick develops into the strongest sensitive deacon. As they struggle to destroy the geists, they find all previous rules for fighting the undead or for their appearances are changing so the deacons, too, must change defensive tactics. As they travel to Ulrich, a community besieged by geists, they encounter Raed Rossin, pretender to the throne, who bears a terrible curse that haunts him wherever he goes. The three combine their talents in the hope of surviving the onslaught of geists that keep appearing. This is the first in a new exciting series that I plan to follow. Good, good read.
