Publisher's Synopsis
Find the elf King or burn....
It's a pity he's only a legend. Right? Ora has been a nomadic warrior and 'messenger-man' in the High North all her life. But she's honour bound to settle in a foreign town with a very different culture. There, not a soul believes in warrior women, their leadership or authority. Yet when the fires start -- burning unchecked -- and assassins hunt in the halls of the Council, she's among the first to act. Ora stops a killer and is soon drafted by the Master of Boats to deliver a critical message into the North. To... a recipient who is a legend? And a people who are a myth? Real lives are on the line. So, Ora crosses through Warped lands and twisted monsters to make sure the message is delivered. On the dark shores of a misted fjord, Ora must face the fears of a town desperate enough to send a message to a mythical race and a monarch out of storybooks. However, by the time she arrives her heart is racing. Her disbelief, wavering. If these legends don't exist, who made the structures that marked her way? The glorious archways. The wonderous groves. And a mechanism that allows ships to sail uphill? What will befall the town when calamities spark like magic, and officials abandon their posts on pain of death? Who are these Strangers, and the legend known only as the Lock-Maker King? You'll love this Fantasy 'first contact' series, because Ora is a warrior for underdogs! Get it now!
