Ombria in Shadow

By Patricia A. McKillip
Ombria in Shadow by Patricia A. McKillip digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

When Ombria’s prince, Royce Greve, breathes his last—in palace rooms high above the city—he leaves his young son and mistress at the mercy of his ancient and powerful great-aunt, Domina Pearl. Meanwhile, in a dreamlike underworld peopled by Ombria’s ghosts, a sorceress weaves her spells and brews her potions, never revealing her real face—or true heart.

Ombria in Shadow Reviews

4.0
“Nobody does dreamy, fairytale-esque fantasy quite like McKillip. There’s something so special in the way she weaves words and worlds together, it’s like watching a beautiful painting being worked on right before your eyes (the covers for her books are quite fitting in this sense).”
“I love the poetry of this book; to me, Ombria in Shadow is an emotion first, a story second. It is sometimes hard to tell exactly what's happening, but I rather like the nebulous nature of it. The city of Ombria is a dream world; it makes sense that the story about it is as well.”
