A high fantasy following a young woman's defiance of her culture as she undertakes a dangerous quest to revive her world's lost magic in Ilana C. Myer's Previous Song Before Nights. Her name was Kimbralin Amaristoth: sister to a cruel brother, daughter of the hateful family. But that name she's forsworn, and now she is simply Lin, a musician and lyricist of uncommon capacity in a land where women are forbidden to answer such callings - a fugitive who must conceal her personality or risk imprisonment and even death. Within the eve of the great celebration, Lin learns that an historical scourge has came back to the land of Eivar, a pandemic both lethal and unnatural. Its resurgence brings with it the recollection associated with an apocalypse that transformed half a continent. Long ago, magic was all over the place, rising from creative expression - from songs, from verse, from experiences. However in Eivar, where poets once wove enchantments of their words and harps, the power was lost. Forbidden experiments in blood divination unleashed the plague that is appreciated as the Red Death, killing hundreds before it was stopped, and departing Eivar's connection to the Otherworld that all enchantment flowed cracked. The Red Death's return can mean only one thing: Someone is spilling innocent blood in order to master dark magic. Now poets who thought only to gain fame because of their songs face an effort much better: Galvanized by Valanir Ocune, most significant Seer of this, Lin and many others attempt to reclaim their legacy and reopen the way to the Otherworld - a pursuit that will test their deepest needs, imperil their lives, and determine the future.
