About this ebook

Enter the Teutonic Fantasy Realm in this slow burn first in series dark romantic fantasy saga featuring a witch of light and her sinister muse.

One novice witch. One cursed sorcerer. A slow-burn romantasy series drenched in darkness.

Helena

For a lifetime I believed myself peculiar, someone discontent with the Alpine village I call home. A loveless marriage and tedium awaited me…until an encounter with a cursed sorcerer awakened me to a realm of magic.

I'm a Teuton witch of light. The only witch in my village. The only witch who caught the attention of the reclusive priest inhabiting a fortress atop a snowcapped mountain. The only witch to view him as a human soul, not a wicked vampire damned to hell.

When he returns to me, I'll join him without question. Even if my family disapproves. Even if it means leaving home forever.

Konstantin

After falling under the filial curse, my demon lord set me loose upon the earth with a single stipulation. Just one rule. Don't succumb to love's cruel sway.

No problem at all. Or so I thought.

I never expected to cross paths with a defiant witch who challenged my grim fate. Or to concoct an elaborate lie about her to protect us both from infernal punishment. And from the wrath of my ruthless peer.

Claimed by the Undead is a slow-burn dark romantic fantasy featuring star-crossed lovers, a dangerous hero, and a sassy heroine who refuses to accept his dismal fate. It is Book 1 in the This Earthen Cage saga and ends on a cliffhanger. It includes strong language, graphic violence, death, and mature themes.

This story continues the one in "Gift of Light", bringing us Helena and Konstantin in search of a way to live their love in peace. Counting on the blessing of some of their families and friends, while helping make the world a little better place, and Helena learning more about her powers; they will have to face great, dangerous obstacles. Here we also find out why Konstantin became a Black Priest. I really want to read the next part of this story! There's a great amount of love, friendship, and heartbreak moments.

Claimed By The Undead - a review by Rosemary Kenny. CL Carhart's This Earthen Cage series-opener, Claimed By The Undead, sounds like the title of a horror flick, but instead introduces Helena, a young Teuton witch drawn to the vampire Konstantin, in a quasi-Twilight fantasy, that leaves her under the influence of the eponymous Undead. Can the couple persuade humans and Konstantin's peers to expose the true demons, amongst them and bring peace to the village and beyond? Read Claimed By The Und

About the author

C.L. Carhart has been writing since the age of 4, dabbling in everything from children’s books, to fantasy, to historical fiction. Eventually, her lifelong interest in European history inspired her to create a mystical other-world based on the Teutonic people groups. Her Teutonic Fantasy Realm is chock full of heart-pounding adventure, dark magic, and swoon-worthy romance.

A book addict, stray cat rescuer, and unashamed metalhead, you can find her plotting out fresh stories deep in the night with a can of diet soda and a fun-sized panther infringing on her progress.
