The Birth of Emotion - Touch of Insanity, #7

Kharee and her companions are accepted at Drenar Keep with a kindness unexpected in the Drift. What starts as a simple friendship with the mysterious Lord Elrom blossoms into something more, forcing Kharee to face hard truths about her relationship with Foss and make serious decisions about her life. As their time at Drenar Keep comes to an end, Lord Vasheer's treachery takes another precious life and robs Kharee of her sight.
Lord Elrom declares war and unleashes an unstoppable orc army upon the vampire lord. Kharee must reach Vasheer Keep first to get her hands on the Healer's Stone before Elrom's army arrives. But even if she succeeds, the only way back to Besamie is through the ultimate battle of powers between Dark and Light. Touch of Insanity is a complete series with cliffhangers that require the books to be read in order. Book 1: First StepsBook 2: Abbey IsleBook 3: Forging AheadBook 4: Each According Their Worth Book5: Into DarknessBook 6: The FallenBook 7: The Birth of PainBook 8: The Great DivideBook 9: Tarna'HalaBook 10: From AshesBook 11: Blood of Darkness
