Wind Rider Chronicles Series

Wind Rider Chronicles - Book 1 Threatening clouds and fierce storms besiege the city of Tyroc. More frequent and powerful than ordinary storms, young Elowyn, a weaver's daughter living in the outskirts of the city, senses something disturbing and unnatural about them. She soon realizes that the storms are but a warning sign of much more frightening things yet to come.    Terrifying wolf-like creatures emerge from the depths of the wilderness at the bidding of a dark master. His name found only among the crumbling pages of ancient texts, the re-appearance of Alazoth and his Hounds is a dark omen for the people of Tyroc and beyond. Only legends remain of the heroes and prophets whose blood was shed ages ago to banish him into the abyss, which should have remained his prison for all time. How he has been released is a mystery, but all the old stories agree that death and destruction are sure to follow.   With the Hounds inching closer each day, the city of Tyroc caught up in religious and political turmoil, and her home life no less turbulent, Elowyn has nothing left to rely on but her meager courage and a budding faith in Aviad, the Creator. She and her sister, Morganne, set out on a remarkable journey that challenges everything they have ever known about themselves, the world, and the path that Aviad has laid out for them.

Wind Rider Chronicles - Book 2 The Kinship rides victorious into the small village of Minhaven, just in time to celebrate the Winter Festival. Their leader, Glak, brings with him both hope and spoils from battle, but also some distressing news. Though Minhaven's greatest threat has finally been defeated, a new one is emerging to take its place.  The enemy Glak describes has not been seen in hundreds of years, yet somehow it has been haunting Elowyn's dreams. Has Braeden's cruel reach followed her from Tyroc's troubled borders into this remote wilderness? If so, there is no place left to run, and the Kinship is preparing to fight an enemy more sinister and powerful than they can possibly imagine.  Past becomes present, as prophecies long buried continue to emerge, revealing their truth to the coming generation. The Era of Peace has ended. The Era of Awakening has begun. While Morganne seeks guidance from the crumbling pages of ancient tomes, Elowyn tries to find her place within a community for the first time.  Despite the impending danger, Morganne and Elowyn decide to make their stand with the people of Minhaven. As they plunge into the depths of history, prophecy, the wilderness, love, fear, hope, faith…the girls begin to learn more about who they are, and who Aviad is calling them to be.

Book 3 of the Wind Rider Chronicles--A Companion Book   Once a proud member of the Sovereign's prestigious personal guard, Einar has lost everything: his home, his Sovereign, and his purpose. Most of his closest friends have either been killed in battle or executed. His friend Nevon died trying to fulfill a dangerous oath…one that Einar disagreed with, but now feels honor-bound to take up in his stead. The quest plunges Einar into the depths of the dark and twisted Shadow Wood, testing the limits of his strength, his beliefs, and his sanity. What he finds in the Wood is far more ominous than anything he'd expected. If he's not careful, Nevon's fate might end up being his own.

It has been six months since Cailean's death, and Elowyn can't get his special clifftop in the mountains out of her thoughts…or her dreams. Something is drawing her there, despite the danger, and time is running out. The new spring growth is threatening to cover what's left of his foot trail forever, but getting there is going to be more challenging than she imagined, especially with the thieves still lurking along the mining road. Morganne is having difficulties of her own. The monks are making plans to send the tomes away, Braeden's tax demands are increasing yet again, and Morganne's once prosperous shop has been noticeably empty. On top of that, the Kinship is getting ready to leave Minhaven—seemingly for good this time. With political unrest building, and the Black Shrine still intact, Glak and Bane want the girls to go with them. Elowyn is eager to leave her sorrows behind, certain that Aviad is calling them to follow the road beyond Minhaven, but Morganne isn't so sure. She's not ready to abandon everything they know for an uncertain future, and Elowyn finds herself at a crossroads. Will she be able to convince Morganne that it's Aviad's voice she is hearing, or will she be forced to go on alone?

Before Morganne and Elowyn were born, Broguean took on the greatest quest of his life.    Broguean the Bard takes a seat at Westfalle tavern, with his lute and a mug of his favorite ale. But when one of his songs starts a tavern brawl, his fortunes take an unexpected turn. He's forced out into the night, and into the waiting arms of a most unexpected foe—someone who knows his true name and the secret past he's been running from. Taken under guard to a nearby monastery, he spends a long, painful night wondering if he's a guest or a prisoner. But the prior who runs the monastery has a job for him. A job that could either help him redeem his tragic past…or get him killed. Is this the message from Aviad he's been waiting for, or is the prior only sending him on a dangerous fool's errand?

The war has been raging for three long years, though the Kinship believes it is far from the front. But Elowyn has a disturbing vision—one in which her worst fears become a terrifying reality: the tower is under attack by Beasts, and she, Morganne, and Adelin are fleeing with the relic…alone.   Braeden has been desperately searching for something in the nearby ruins of Solis. The shadows have settled there, enveloping the mountains in a darkness that feels like a living presence to Elowyn and Glak. Beasts guard the pass, attacking any who come near, and the Kinship is cut off from Minhaven. Elowyn worries that Braeden is looking for her, and more importantly the relic, but Morganne isn't so sure. She has discovered that Solis was not the remote and insignificant place she'd assumed it to be. The monks who once lived there were hiding something worth dying to protect—something that was perhaps as important as the relic itself.   Will the Kinship find Braeden's prize before he does, or will the Beasts finally bring the war to the tower's front door, setting into motion the events of Elowyn's worrisome vision? Only time will tell whether the Kinship can prevail against the Beasts yet again, or if Morganne and Elowyn will lose their home, and with it everyone they care most about.
