Alchemised - Hardcover

by SenLinYu (Author)

Alchemised - Hardcover by SenLinYu is an epic dark fantasy novel about suppressed memories, forbidden alchemy, necromancy, and survival in the aftermath of a devastating war.

Helena Marino was once a gifted alchemist and healer. Now she is a prisoner whose abilities have been suppressed and whose memories of the final months of the war have disappeared. Although official records describe her as an insignificant member of the Resistance, her captors believe her missing memories may conceal something powerful.

To uncover the truth, Helena is placed under the control of the High Reeve, a feared necromancer serving Paladia’s new ruling class. Confined within his deteriorating estate, she must protect what remains of her identity while confronting the secrets hidden in her mind—and those surrounding her captor.
