Cyndere's Midnight by Jeffrey Overstreet
In the second book in the Auralia Thread series, the power of Auralia's colors brings together a bloodthirsty beastman and a grieving widow in a most unlikely relationship, one that not only will change their lives, but could also impact the four kingdoms of The Expanse forever. Jordam is one of four ferocious brothers from the clan of cursed beastmen. But he is unique: The glory of Auralia's colors has enchanted him, awakening a noble conscience that clashes with his vicious appetites. Cyndere, heiress to a great ruling house, and her husband Deuneroi share a dream of helping the beastmen. But when Deuneroi is killed by the very people he sought to help, Cyndere risks her life and reputation to reach out to Jordam. Beside a mysterious well--an apparent source of Auralia's colors--a beauty and a beast form a cautious bond. Will Jordam be overcome by the dark impulse of his curse, or stand against his brothers to defend House Abascar's survivors from a deadly assault?
JEFFREY OVERSTREET calls upon a decade of experience as a film journalist for publications like Christianity Today, Image: A Journal of the Arts and Religion, Books and Culture, Paste Magazine, Seattle Pacific University's Response magazine, The Other Journal and his popular website lookingcloser.org. He frequently lectures at Seattle Pacific University and Seattle-area churches; frequently reviews films on radio talk shows in Seattle and Wisconsin; and recently participated in a panel discussion on Christians and culture with writer Dick Staub, novelist Jeff Berryman and actor Grant Goodeve for CITA (Christians in the Theatre Arts). In September 2005, Jeffrey was featured as Image journal's Artist of the Month. His film reviews were recently celebrated in a cover story in The Seattle Times' Sunday magazine, Pacific Northwest. TIME Magazine quoted him in an article about the new surge of Christian engagement with film and popular culture. He is part of a select writers' group called The Milton Center Fellowship and serves as director of an association of Christian film critics. This is his first book.
