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 deman...

You will have no firstborn to rule after youShe will never conceive your firstborn - or at least not first."The last words of the Evil Wizard, Lord Prydeen, have hung over King Damien and Queen Genevieve for five years.Five years, wherein Damien has sought to rebuild the Realm, inspiring and requiring a return to honor and noblesse oblige among his corrupt and canny noble class.Five years, whence Genevieve has restored three of the Five Lost P...

The Forest of Ryylyn is a place of legendary danger: bandits, wild animals... as well as magickal beings and possibly even Gates to other worlds. Sixteen-year-old Karana can vouch for at least the first three. She was on her way to a betrothal when her caravan was attacked by robbers and... things that certainly didn't seem human. Her mother hid her in a secret compartment of their carriage, and miraculously she wasn't found. But now she's the...

Genevieve Stellarine inherited not only her title and duchy from her father, but Duke Aldred's vision of living in a country not ruled by an Evil Wizard. And, somehow, after eighty-three years on the throne the Old King has died, leaving behind a power struggle between his former Apprentice and his grandson, King Damien... a young man whom Genevieve saw a single time when they were both children. As the leader of the Rebellion - the so-calle...

Running away from home in order to save his kingdom was a Gallant sort of thing for a Crown Prince to do. A self-sacrificing sort of thing. Maybe even a brave sort of thing. Definitely Proper Princely Behavior. Right? And there should be some pretty awesome adventures as Thony looks for his princess (whom he's too young to marry yet anyways, so there's plenty of time before any gross stuff like that). And he's starting out in the Fairy Wood w...

It wasn't fair.Princes were supposed to go on adventures.Instead, Thony's older sisters had gone off on The Quest and Left Him Behind. In Aldyrwald, of all places. I mean, yeah, it was their home and Thony was Crown Prince and all, but seriously? Aldyrwald was the boringest, most insignificant place in the world. In any world.And Thony's efforts to "liven things up a little" are always so completely underappreciated.Things start looking up wit...

We all worry about our kids learning math. Even if the kids are in school, there's always a concern. Sometimes it's about the kid's concern... sometimes it's about their teacher's concern (parent-teacher or otherwise). But a lot of the time it's about US. It's about our own math-phobias - those 'fears, dislikes, or aversions' that we picked up from our own math experiences and that we inadvertently pass on to our kids. We don't want them to be...

The Evil Wizard Henig is dead.The Province of Taridawil has been freed from his curse.Surely, now Karana can hang up her shield and return to her real job as Head of the most important merchant House in the world.There's just one or two small problems:The unpleasant Lord Jaycoff of Mountainmeadow has a contract requiring Karana to marry one of his sons - though not Sir Ivan, her erstwhile Knight-Companion. Karana still doesn't understand why I...
