    About this series

    Sometimes magic isn't the weapon of the mage. Sometimes the mage is the weapon of the magic.

    Tamsen is now the Elven Queen, and a dreadful responsibility has fallen upon her. She must build the greatest army the seven kingdoms have ever known, and return to the blood-plains of fabled Ilia to fight the war the Elves once refused to join. Awaiting her there will be her hated uncle, the Duke de Spesialle. But first, she must find the warrior women of Hippolytos, the greatest fighting force in the world, and discover what secrets the Ka'antira pendant has hidden for so long. 

    But the real battle is not in front of the ruins of Ilia. She must make her way to the infamous arena of the gods. There she will undertake the final test in the gods' great game--and confront the witch-goddess Lamashtu. 

    Tamsen's path to Ilia has been fraught with peril, but in the arena decisions are final. And in order to preserve the Elven Realm, Tamsen must be prepared to lose everything she loves. 

    Can she make the final sacrifice? Or will she doom the Elves--and herself--to destruction?

      Tamsen de Asphodel watched as her parents were killed—murdered by her sorcerer uncle. Raised by her Elven kin, Tamsen knows her destiny is to avenge them both.   Unfortunately, Tamsen’s destiny is complicated. She is the sole heir to her human father’s estate, but she is also the last remaining heir to the Elven throne. The Elves, especially the Scout Brial, are suspicious of her human ties and her magical power. Her magic is unique—neither human nor Elven, dangerous, and difficult to control. And when she and Brial fall in love, it is a relationship the Elves will not accept.   But when her uncle moves to destroy the Elves, war explodes across both kingdoms. Only Tamsen, with Brial at her side, can bring human and Elf together to fight against him. In the reckoning that is coming, she will need both sides of her conflicted nature…and the aid of a goddess.

      Tamsen must discover what gift can buy the redemption of the Elves--but she may not like the answer. With Asphodel and the Elven Realm safe for a time, Tamsen de Asphodel dives headlong into the political turmoil. Her decision to wade into these shark-infested waters is complicated by the fact that she hasn’t yet regained her strength from the magic she used to defeat her uncle, Spesialle. On top of that, Brial is none too pleased that Tamsen’s pushing herself physically in the search for Ansienne’s new king—or with their best friend’s feelings for his wife. So when the Virgin Huntress sends them all on a new quest, Tamsen is haunted by the single question she must answer. What gift can buy the redemption of the Elves? In the end, Tamsen must determine if she has the courage and strength to give the right answer.

      The game of the gods is speeding up, and when Tamsen and Brial find a long-lost civilization of Elves, the pattern of the gods' game starts to become clearer. After a new magic evens up the odds of the foreordained battle, Tamsen begins to feel confident—until a lethal and forbidden possibility tempts her from her path.  But that possibility is actually the opening gambit of an ancient, dangerous deity--a gambit that signals the emergence of a new foe into the game.  When Tamsen is drawn into conflict with immortal enemies, she discovers that the line between obedience and temptation is much narrower than she thought. Obedience is dangerous; temptation can kill.
