Kara Magari is about to discover a beautiful world full of terrifying things--Ourea.
Kara, a college student still reeling from her mother's recent death, has no idea the hidden world of Ourea even exists until a freak storm traps her in a sunken library. With no way out, she opens an ancient book of magic called the Grimoire and unwittingly becomes its master, which means Kara now wields the cursed book's untamed power. Discovered by Ourea's royalty, she becomes an unwilling pawn in a generations-old conflict--a war intensified by her arrival. In this world of chilling creatures and betrayal, Kara shouldn't trust anyone... but she's being hunted and can't survive on her own. She drops her guard when Braeden, a native soldier with a dark secret, vows to keep her safe. And though she doesn't know it, her growing attraction to him may just be her undoing.
For twelve years, Braeden Drakonin has lived a lie. The Grimoire is his one chance at redemption, and it lands in his lap when Kara Magari comes into his life. Though he begins to care for this human girl, there is something he wants more. He wants the Grimoire.
Welcome to Ourea, where only the cunning survive.

Lichgates is delight to read! It starts out with Kara a normal human, sucked into a world she knows nothing about. Then we get to meet Braeden. I have to admit that I was a bit torn about Braeden. His ulterior motives make you wonder constantly what he is going to do next.
I have to say I really liked Kara. She was such a strong female, with a mouth on her, so typical of the young. This story is all about her finding the book and becoming "The Vagabond". The imagery used by the author makes you BE a part of this wonderful story. The characters are strongly written and enjoyable to read.
I am looking forward to reading more from this very talented author. This was an amazing book and I highly recommend this 5 star read to anyone who enjoys adventure and a strong heroine. Add in that bit of magic and the twist of not your normal good versus evil story and you have a hit here!

Wow, the world building on this one was breathtaking. The world of Ourea is just full of so many things. Surprises are around every corner.
