Fear The Forbidden!
All of Quinland had been raised to avoid The Forbidden, that wide swath of forest to the East, at all cost. Every man that had wandered there had disappeared without a trace. Stories of fantastic beasts and impenetrable darkness spawned nightmares among the young…and old. Then, at the age of twelve, Jon stumbled into The Forbidden. Found days later with strange wounds and no memory of what happened, his story was told on dark nights around warm fires.
Twenty years later, these memories prod Jon to discover the truth about the danger that dwells there. The surprising meetings, profound discoveries, and mortal dangers he confronts reveal a world of threats beyond his darkest dreams.
In his first novel, The Forbidden: Book 1, author James St. John creates a new world with an astounding history and an intriguing future.
