Synopsis
Earthbound is the third and final novel of the Faebound trilogy, continuing the story of the elven sisters Yeeran and Lettle and the fae world they became entangled with in the earlier books. Lettle investigates a disturbing truth concerning the obeah, the source of fae magic, alongside Alder, a uniquely surviving human searching for his own origins, while Yeeran navigates the diplomatic pressures of her role as a warrior-ambassador between elven and fae interests. As secrets that have been building across the trilogy come to light and ripple across the land, the novel brings the sisters' individual arcs of love, duty and power toward a shared reckoning, closing out the trilogy that began with their capture in Faebound.
