Never to live

the long version

"Imprisoned, Elwyn endures torture so horrific she drives herself insane to elude true madness. She finally escapes, but at the deadly cost of the only remaining friend she has. Now, unless her broken mind is playing another cruel trick, she discovers she is turning into the monster she despises most of all. Amidst fighters and fairies, demons and dragons, traitors wear the face of friend as she searches for the lost fragments of her mind. Now Elwyn is the only one mad enough to face the Monster of the Kings, but she is more likely to destroy herself before even finding him"--Page 4 of cover.
