Power is their birthright. But will magic bind them, save them or set them free?
In a world where power is everything, Aleks and Vaira Kercheval rejected their heritage. A magical fire destroyed their family as children, they escaped to safety, and the siblings hadn’t seen each other for years.
Then Vaira inherits Aubrey House, their ancestral home. Forming a reluctant truce, brother and sister travel to the abandoned mansion. But crossing the threshold plunges them into a world of ancient feuds, magic and monsters.
The siblings are drawn deep into a war between rival mages - one Vaira is determined to win. Yet the powerless Aleks accidentally summons and binds a monstrous prince from the Void – a creature of immense power. As the lines between human and monster blur, the siblings must decide how far they’ll go to survive. Magic shattered their family. Now power demands their souls.
The Shape of Monsters is a treasure trove of dark magic and family secrets, where betrayals linger and power corrupts.
