Description

What do you do when the King wants to turn you over to an Evil Wizard? Become a knight and fight the Wizard, of course!

An Epic Fantasy with just a touch of sugar. Karana has to succeed at the academy for knights to escape being handed over to an Evil Wizard. She'll be helped – or hindered – by her two Companion knights… handsome young men with mysterious pasts and a strong connection to each other.

***************

Five years ago the Evil Wizard Henig destroyed Taridawil, turning the prosperous province into a Black Desert.

One year ago Karana's merchant parents were slain by Henig's foul minions as they took her to be betrothed to a lord's son.

Now, seventeen-year-old Karana has emerged from struggling to survive a brutal winter in the Forest of Ryylyn - a full year on her own with no human contact - only to discover that the foul wizard has demanded that the King turn her over or the rest of the Realm will follow Taridawil's fate.

Compounding the problem is that Karana is now the head of her powerful merchant House and has responsibilities that reach far beyond one small Realm.

Saving the Realm without ending up as a Sacrificial Maiden is... going to be a challenge...
