Journey with nineteen-year-old Ki’leah Alrhiane Del’Sivahr, who flees an isolated life as High Princess of Si’vad to run away with her lover, the Palace Bard.  When he fails to meet her on the road, fate sweeps Ki’leah into an alliance with a band of men and women known as the Fey-Velahr, a select company sworn to destroy Lyarra, the dormant sorceress—one of the legendary Rahar, thought to have been eradicated from Sildehna centuries earlier—before she wakes to seek a devastating claim to the Northern Kingdom.  

Despite her doubts and inadequacies, Ki’leah soon discovers that she is necessary to their mission.  For she alone possesses information, carefully guarded within the lore of her royal ancestors, that will unlock the final key to Lyarra’s whereabouts.  But Ki’leah must rush to solve the riddle, for another also journeys deep into the mountains of Norr—not to destroy Lyarra, but to wake her. . . .

The Song and the Sorceress is an epic fantasy set in the exciting new world of Sildehna.  Look for it now at a bookstore near you!
