Description
"It tells of each and every day since the beginning" - Absolem, on the Oraculum Set in the world of Tim Burton's rendition of 'Alice In Wonderland', hear the never-told story of the writer of the Oraculum, the be-all and end-all compendium of Underland (or Wonderland). Underland is in dire straits. Alice and the White Queen are mere whispers on the wind. The Red Queen holds ultimate power. War brews on the horizon. Daanya has lived in the Red Queen's castle for three years. The last of the oracles in Underland, she was taken and tasked with one duty: write the Oraculum. But with her powers dwindling and the execution block imminent if she cannot perform, she must find other ways to survive. That could mean having to put her hatred aside for Ilosovic Stayne, the new Knave of Hearts. His ego and feeble attempts at charm sicken her, not to mention the fact that she wanted to be the Knave herself... but he could be the difference between life and death. As she tries to form alliances and protect herself, her prophecies start to grow ever stranger. Within them, she begins to see places that don't exist, even at the furthest corners of Underland. And in this world? A yellow-haired girl, running from something... or perhaps towards it. Can Daanya make it out of Salazen Grum alive? Can she truly trust Stayne? Or will she lose more than her life in the Red Queen's Court?
