I had fed Soulwood twice, the first time when a man had tackled me in the woods and tried to have his way with me, to get both my body and the land that came with it.

But he died fast and his essence had fed my land, making my trees grow strong and swiftly, so much that the forest now looked like old-growth trees. (11% through on my Kindle)

Flame in the Dark by Faith Hunter was released December 5, 2017 from Ace.
