Two thousand years ago, the Born Queen defeated the Skasloi lords, freeing humans from the bitter yoke of slavery. But now monstrous creatures roam the land and destinies become inextricably entangled in a drama of power and seduction. The king’s woodsman, a rebellious girl, a young priest, a roguish adventurer, and a young man made suddenly into a knight all face malevolent forces that shake the foundations of the kingdom, even as the Briar King, legendary harbinger of death, awakens from his slumber. At the heart of this many-layered tale is Anne Dare, youngest daughter of the royal family… upon whom the fate of her world may depend.
Thanks for offering your novel freely. I am still working on mine…
Epic Fantasy Novel
What could be better than bonding with a ferocious icetiger, meeting a
red-haired warrior woman and being sent on a diplomatic mission to the
greatest city in the world?
With burgeoning telepathic
abilities, 19-year-old Talon travels with Rekala and Sarlice to the city
of Telby. Their mission? To seek help for the peop…le of Jaria against
their zealous enemies, the Zeikas. With their exile no longer in effect,
the Zeikas are moving in on Jaria, other nations of the Kriite faith…
and on Talon. Although his gifts make him a valuable asset in the war,
if he is captured, he could become a weapon to be wielded against all
Kriites who use the telepathic waves.
Faced with betrayal,
capture and near-constant pursuit, Sarlice and Talon blaze across Telby,
fighting their way to reach Tanza, a distant Kriite nation. Tanza is
shrouded in mystery, protected by a magical barrier and guarded by the
colourful, furred skyearls who patrol the skies. But when raiding Zeikas
and their dragons start using human sacrifices to break through the
barrier, Tanza is drawn into the most epic battle of this age. Talon’s
arrival is a miracle, but will it be enough?
