About the book
Valdemar’s last hope lies in magic the kingdom no longer remembers how to wield.
Heir to the throne and a trained Herald, Elspeth knows duty, but she never expected to abandon her home in search of powers she’s only begun to understand. To stop a rising darkness, she must find a mentor to awaken her dormant mage abilities before it’s too late.
Meanwhile, Tayledras scout Darkwind uncovers a creeping sorcery in the Uncleansed Lands, one so vile it threatens to consume entire peoples. To fight it, he may have to break his own oath and reclaim a power he’s sworn never to use again.
As magic stirs, allies converge and an ancient evil rises. The fate of Valdemar hangs on the strength of the untrained and the unwilling.

Choose your retailer
About the book
Kerowyn never wanted to be a lady of the keep. She preferred a sword in her hand and a horse under her.
But when her home is raided, her father is killed, and her brother’s bride is kidnapped, Kerowyn has no choice but to act. Armed only with her courage and a mysterious magical blade inherited from her sorceress grandmother, she rides into danger to save what’s left of her family.
That rescue is just the beginning. Her path leads through mercenary camps, war zones, and the courts of Valdemar, where she’s forged into a legend. But destiny has bigger plans, and the magic that saved her once may soon demand everything.
Kerowyn set out to change her fate. She didn’t expect to change a kingdom’s.

About the book
The kingdom is crumbling, and Vanyel stands alone.
Valdemar’s king is dying. Dark magic surges from the border. War with Karse is escalating. And the last of the Herald-Mages are dead—except for Vanyel. Once a reluctant prodigy, now a weary guardian, he’s the only shield left between Valdemar and total annihilation.
But the enemy is more than a sorcerer. He’s a master of forbidden power with a plan to corrupt the land itself, and he has one goal: destroy Vanyel.
A vision warns Vanyel of what’s to come—his own death, his Companion’s destruction, and the fall of everything he’s fought for. Still, the fight must be waged.
In a world poisoned by war and shadow, one mage’s sacrifice may be the only hope left.

About the book
Vanyel is the most powerful Herald-Mage in Valdemar, but even legends get tired.
After years spent battling dark magic and border skirmishes, Vanyel is on the edge of collapse. He’s desperate for rest. But when his Companion, Yfandes, answers a magical cry for help, that peace shatters instantly.
In a neighboring kingdom, devastation rules. A young Herald named Tashir may be to blame, his magic spiraling out of control. Or he might be a pawn caught in something far more sinister. As Vanyel digs into the wreckage, he uncovers signs of an ancient, terrifying force at work.
Now, with his strength waning and the fate of two kingdoms in the balance, Vanyel must decide how far he’s willing to go—and how much he’s willing to lose.

About the book
Vanyel wants nothing more than to be a Bard. Not a warrior. Not a mage. Definitely not a Herald.
But fate doesn’t care what Vanyel wants. Born with rare and volatile magical talent, he’s sent to train under his aunt, the formidable Herald-Mage Savil. Their clashes are as explosive as Vanyel’s abilities, which grow more dangerous by the day.
When a reckless spell unleashes nightmare creatures across Valdemar, Vanyel’s raw power becomes a national threat. Now, it’s not just about learning control. It’s about survival—for himself, for Savil, and for a kingdom teetering on magical catastrophe.
What begins as a boy’s rebellion becomes a battle for identity, love, and legacy in this Lambda Award–winning fantasy about power, pain, and finding your place in a world that fears you.

And trained in all the forms of death-dealing combat, she took to the road in search of her enemies.
