A forbidden text, a goddess, and a choice about remembrance

In the fog-bound towers of Veylthorne, a fragment of the Midnight Codex draws reclusive scribe Abigail Avenmore into a struggle involving a grieving goddess, an elder god’s possessed warlord, and pages scattered across a world marked by betrayal. The central dilemma gives the gothic fantasy a mythic scale: completing the Codex could end the goddess’s existence, while resisting it means challenging the powers behind a recurring cycle of war and forgetting. Grief, old vows, and the possibility of mortal hope shape the stakes, with a crumbling lighthouse and a sea that remembers serving as vivid elements of the book’s setting.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in gothic fantasy
  • Readers drawn to stories involving gods, forbidden relics, and mythic conflicts
  • Readers interested in themes of grief, loyalty, and remembrance

Book overview

In the fog-drenched towers of Veylthorne, reclusive scribe Abigail Avenmore unearths a fragment of the Midnight Codex, a forbidden relic pulsing with the grief of the Raven Queen, a young goddess desperate to die and vanish from eternity.

 

As the Codex claims her as its vessel, buried childhood vows resurface, a warlord possessed by an elder god hunts the scattered pages, and the sea itself remembers every betrayal.

 

Racing to a crumbling lighthouse amid drowning stars, Abigail must choose: finish the Codex to grant the goddess oblivion, or defy the indifferent pantheon, shatter the cycle of war and forgetting, and fight for fragile mortal hope alongside the friends who swore to protect her.

 

A dark, oceanic gothic fantasy of grief, forbidden oaths, and love that refuses to let darkness win.
