Heretic

By Mitch Sweet

HERETIC

At the center of a fiery, arcane ritual stands a young cleric, on the verge of binding himself to an otherworldly infernal creature who regards him with both trepidation and curiosity, eager to slip her own chains. If he seals the pact with her, the life he has known is truly over and no longer merely his own. Yet, if this desperate gambit succeeds, it could blaze a new trail for them both.

Rion, now an exile from his former religious order, finds himself tasked with carefully navigating not only the world itself - while concealing his heresy - but also the evolving bond between him and Malia, the literal devil on his metaphorical shoulder, whom he has vowed to redeem.

While having hope is all well and good, is such a thing even possible? For that matter, what does redemption even look like? How do you know when you've found it? And is this pact between them becoming something much more profound than either are willing to admit?

Heretic is a character-driven, heroic, romantic fantasy tale with the complexities of the bonds we share at its heart.
