The Painted Hall Collection
The Painted Hall Collection
A curse binds the City of Winter and the Dragon's prophecy holds the key to breaking it. But will a poor fisherman from the South have the means to fulfil the prophecy? Or will the foreignness of the North itself repel him and his efforts?
The Painted Hall Collection is a series of four short, old-school fairy-tales designed to open your eyes to wonder. It comes with an exclusive short story, Shattered Memories!
Shattered Memories
For generations upon generations, Memories have been passed from mother to daughter in an unbroken line of Secretkeepers.
Not this time. When Nek Ramalan dies, her granddaughter, Rahsia, does not inherit the Memories. Instead, her best friend Iman struggles to fulfil a role she's not prepared for...piecing together shards of Memories she's not equipped to understand.
A sneak peek into the Absolution series!
