What
if you discovered there was time before time began? What if everything
you thought was true, was not? What if there was a beginning before, “In
the beginning”? What if another story was unfolding within our time? A story steeped in loss, love, betrayal, and secrets?
On
her twenty-third celebrated birthday, Lilith arrived in Scotland,
following clues she had secretly collected about her past. Little did
she know that her arrival at the Rosslyn Chapel would reignite one of
the oldest wars of all time- The Fall. Sides will be chosen, lives will
be lost, and the secret kept all this time by the Illuminati will be
exposed.
Welcome
to Eden. The place where magic was born, trees are gateways to other
realms, and Angels aren’t what you think they are. Meet Lilith. A young
woman with an incredible story; one she isn’t supposed to know, much
less tell. Meet Sam. A man with an unknown past and powers that rival
Lilith’s.
“Did you sense the pain from within the child?” Declan asked.
“It was greater than anything I have ever experienced. What was done to her is unforgivable. Her strength in not giving into the Shade is unfathomable. Normally, I would say the child has much to learn, but in this case, I fear we have much to learn from her.” Alaric answered with reverence.
Turning toward the pool Declan responded, “Emzara will know what to do. I will call for her as well.”
Looking into the water, he saw the fair-skinned child lying at Adela’s feet, her long copper locks strewn across a perfectly round face. Declan, the great black unicorn, whispered, “Happy birthday, little one. We will find out who or what has awoken you. You will be safe. No harm shall befall you. This is my solemn vow.”
“It is time dear friend.” A voice shook him from his thoughts.
The Dragon and Unicorn Knights cast spell after spell into the pool. Runes in ancient languages long since forgotten began to glow on her skin weaving a glowing web of magic around the sleeping girl. A faint orange light caught the Unicorn Knight’s eye. Amongst the glowing runes on her body, a faint symbol appeared on her wrist. Adela watched as the sleeping girl accepted the magic from the knights -- and strengthened it.
“She bears the mark of the Great Sacrifice. The myths are true. I knew she someone important when she came to the cave, but never in all these millennia did I think she was the Taken.” The Knights looked at one another as the reality of who the young girl’s identity became clear.

When
she is not writing or teaching, she spends her days hanging out with
five of the coolest boys on the planet and at night can be found doing
completely ridiculous things like reading Joseph Campbell and Jane
Austin and watching the same 3 movies on TV.

My Review
Fascinating!
Let me begin by saying that this book is very complex and required total attention. This is not a light read by any means which is just what I had been looking for. With a large cast of characters and a very detailed story line I was fully engaged. The Lilith Scrolls is an in depth look at religion, myth and the question of soul mates.
Author B.L.Marsh weaves a tale that brings about more questions than answers and poses some very fundamental questions about love and faith. I love the style and flow of this book which changes subtly to fit each character and situation. The reader is constantly teased with bits and pieces of information leaving us to discover the truth along with the characters.
This is a book for those who love a good story, but be sure to take your time to really immerse yourself in this book and you will fall in love. I can't wait for more!
Happy Reading!
