The excerpts provide an overview of the novel Wicked Enchantment by Anya Bast, offering both critical reviews and samples of the narrative alongside publishing information. The story centers on the protagonist, Aislinn, a noble of the Seelie (light) Court who discovers she possesses strong Unseelie (dark) magick and the abilities of a necromancer, placing her in danger from the Shadow King of the Unseelie Court, who is revealed to be her biological father. The plot details her complicated romantic and political entanglement with Gabriel Mac Braire, a powerful half-incubus who is secretly the Lord of the Wild Hunt, and their eventual alliance against the Shadow King using their combined powers and the long-lost artifact known as the Book of Bindings to fight for freedom from the druidic Phaendir. The text also includes glossary entries and mentions the existence of a sequel, Cruel Enchantment.
