Fortnight in the Shepherd's Forest

Set in 14th-century Romania, this dark gothic fantasy follows Codrin Voinescu, a retired soldier haunted by his past, as he unexpectedly finds himself embroiled in a conflict that leads him into the mysterious Hoia Baciu Forest. There, he encounters a half-Faerie guide, leading to a transformative two-week journey filled with nightmarish fairy-tales, plot twists, and a deep exploration of the human condition. Authored by Ariel Archer, the story immerses readers in a richly atmospheric and emotionally charged historical fantasy.
