A ghost's stern warning...
The dead Sciomancer told Lanith to beware of fire and kisses.
He should have told her to RUN.
Enchanters are so attractive, most believe they are amoral seducers. The Church considers them a dangerous lure for a soul's journey into the afterlife. Problem is, Enchanter essence powers all of the magic in Lanith's world of Sye. Because of the escalating attacks from Church Enforcers, the Enchanters have fled to their impenetrable enclaves.
Lanith's husband Tredan has vanished. Her home and curio shop have burned. Long ago, she promised Tredan to seek the Enchanters' help if he ever disappeared, so Lanith teams up with Enchanter Nyle. They discover Tredan wrote a journal filled with spells that will ruin the Enchanters' magic.
There is more bad news. An Enforcer has come to town, and he will stop at nothing to acquire Tredan's journal for the Church. Lanith must stop the Church magician from getting the journal and destroying the Enchanters. Lanith must also overcome her desire for Nyle's delectable essence.
The Church's warnings are true. Saving Sye's magic could damn her soul.
Tredan Bane eBook Lita Burke
The terms magic, enchantments, dragons and magic are common-place words in the fantasy genre. Now, with the 'discovery' of the land of Sye, Ms. Burke gives us dragonettes, Maji'kers, Enchanters and their seductively flavoured kisses, which impart to the recipient the essence needed for the particular magic. Or just some peace to a wife suffering the loss of her husband.And this is how the story unfolds, with Lanith searching for her missing husband, Tredan, who disappeared during an attack at their shop. Guided by ghosts, aided by the Enchanters (one in particular!) and accompanied by the little dragonette whose loyalty knows no bounds, Lanith searches through the worlds of the living and the dead for Tredan. Things are made even more difficult when she discovers that 'the Chuch', the enemy of the Enchanters (think "Inquisition", sort of) is dogging her every move, in an attempt to find him first.
Tredan's Bane tale is a beautifully crafted tale, although initially it was difficult to get into. This is in NO way due to any shortcomings of the book, but rather that this world of fantasy and magic is such a complete removal from any world that has been described so far...at least in my experience...that the reader must forget all s/he has ever 'learned' about other worlds before venturing into this one!
My suggestion would be that, before entering through the gates of Sye, the reader first visit the 'welcome center" she also created on her website, which explains their culture...and their unique magic!
I've not yet continued beyond Tredan's Bane, but am so enamoured of this world that I intend to tread the full journey to its end.
I invite all to join me.

Tredan Bane eBook Lita Burke Reviews
Brief synopsis Lanith has been thrown into turmoil when her curio shop is burned to the ground and her husband Tredan goes missing. She keeps a promise she made to him to seek out the Enchanters and ends up inside a magical world that is full of danger as someone seeks to destroy the Enchanters and their magical essence. Lanith discovers that it is Tredan's journal that is at the root of the current evil and center of attention so she must find a way to find it and protect it.
Originality I loved this story because of its creativity, magic and originality! Magic essence and spells around every corner! Ghosts from the Fields of Yalu, who you can visit if you have a couple good enchanter friends to bring you back. Charms and amulets! Tredan's Bane is packed full of fantasy fun!
Characters I enjoyed the variety of characters in the story and they were all well developed, even Tredan, who is lost in the Fields of Yalu. My favorite was Arnl'jhott, the adorable and so sweet dragonette-I was almost crushed. I enjoyed Sciomancer Taavi, the Ghostchanter as he struggled under the villainess Samirah's control.
SPOILER Now...Lanith was quite a character. I guess magic essence can make a girl do anything, including mourn for her husband at the same time she is gallivanting all over town taking magic kisses from everyone who crosses her path and wanting to bed her enchanter. This back and forth is the one reason I gave this book a 4 instead of a 5 star. They haven't even had a funeral and she's moving onto her next great love. Granted, I don't want to spend a whole book in mourning but this just went to fast for me to be believable. Again, magic can make a person do strange things - including professing their love of donkeys! Loved that spell. That said, I liked her character and her drive to tackle the evil that hung over all of them.
Recommendation Tredan's Bane goes well with exquisite sushi with edible orchids and a glass of wine. This book is well polished and I highly recommend it for readers who love fantasy books filled with magic at every turn...oh and kissing.
Tredan’s Bane by Lita Burke was a book I discovered on Book Review Depot. Based on the blurb and the cover, I decided to give it a shot. Read on to see my thoughts on the novel!
Synopsis (from the author) A ghost's stern warning...
The dead Sciomancer told Lanith to beware of fire and kisses.
He should have told her to RUN.
Enchanters are so attractive, most believe they are amoral seducers. The Church considers them a dangerous lure for a soul's journey into the afterlife. Problem is, Enchanter essence powers all of the magic in Lanith's world of Sye. Because of the escalating attacks from Church Enforcers, the Enchanters have fled to their impenetrable enclaves.
What I liked Lita Burke created an interesting world where both the Church and secular society have magicians and they are in competition with each other. Enter into the fray Lanith, wife of Tredan, caught between the Church and their priests and the Enchanters, the societal magicians. The story combines elements of mystery, suspense, romance, love, betrayal, and the battle between the Church and the Enchanters and draws the reader into Lanith’s world, her heartbreak over her missing husband Tredan,and her developing relationship with the Enchanters. Very well written, with pleasing plot twists, and a satisfying ending, Tredan’s Bane was a nice read.
What I didn’t like For me, even with the action that begins almost immediately, the story developed slowly. I thought the essence taking sequences were too numerous and repetitive and didn’t add much to the story.
Overall impression As I mentioned, the story was very well written. It had nice elements of romance and suspense, with just enough intrigue to keep it interesting. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys a little bit of fantasy romance with a sensual twist. Well done Lita Burke!
My rating 4 stars
