    The Mark of Destiny Series

    By Andrea Manning

    ()

    About this series

    In life, there will always be death. But in death, new life flourishes.

     

    In the land of Nocuous, danger lurks everywhere. Ophelia knew this since she was young. Her nomadic family has traversed the continent for as long as she can remember, such is their way. She has witnessed death more than once. What she didn't expect was to watch her entire family be devoured by wyrms. She is left with a cryptic prophecy from her grandmother foretelling what is to come. The Blood Tree that sustains life all over Nocuous is withering. Beasts are running more rampant than usual. But none of that should matter when Ophelia's life is to also be stolen away, or so she believes.

     

    An assignment sends a team of hunters to the Ashen Wastes to take care of a particularly problematic monster. One young man in the group, Dante, isn't like the others. One would think a blind hunter to be useless. But it's his keen senses that allow them to find the sole surviving nomad. Perhaps it is fate that the now beastly girl is traveling with hunters, for there is something she finds mysterious about Dante and the black thorns that mar his unseeing eyes.

      The mark she was born with will guide her to her destiny.   For Amelia, being a princess is all about responsibility and protecting the people of her land. Born with a strange mark on her hip, she has the ability to communicate with animals. It is her sole wish to bring together the five kingdoms of Halcyon so that all may know peace, whether they be man or beast. Though that desire seems unreachable, for the people of the land have warred and quarreled for ages. But then, an unexpected surprise gives Amelia the chance to change things for the better. An arranged marriage to the prince of one of the oldest rival kingdoms promises to bring about a new era of peace and harmony. It all seems too good to be true, but there is more to this proposal than meets the eye.   Things don't go quite as planned, and Amelia is forced to flee her home with her closest friend and personal bodyguard, Alan. Secrets will be revealed, new and unlikely allies will be made, and the princess will learn the truth behind the mysterious mark and the power she was born with. With the help of Alan, an insightful dragon, and the many rare and magical creatures around her, Amelia will do what she must to save her home and her people, and perhaps unlock the true potential of her power.

      Amelia's journey grows more difficult in this exciting sequel to The Mark of Destiny.   With greater power comes greater risks.   Princess Amelia's journey was off to a good start. With her knight Alan by her side, she earned the trust of Alabaster, the capital city of Whitecliff. In high spirits, they continue onward to find more allies in their fight against Prince Daniel's forces. But things take a turn for the worse when Amelia's remarkable power begins to run rampant. Her mark is spreading, and with it, her power grows stronger, becoming much more than she can bear. Not only that, but Alan too has questions about who – or what – he really is. His own form of magical power buried deep inside him is what saved Alabaster from the wrath of the ravenous hydra. Questions have been plaguing his mind ever since.   Fortunately, Ember the phoenix has rejoined them after escaping Daniel's clutches, bringing news about the events within Corundum's walls and the state of its people. With new vigor, the group presses on with the hope that Penumbra, the capital of Shadowhedge, will be their next ally. Unbeknownst to them, Daniel is in pursuit, and Amelia's mark continues to grow, putting a strain on her body that no one would've expected. The princess will have to make difficult choices that could determine the fate of her friends and her people, and even herself.

      Read how Amelia's journey ends in this thrilling conclusion of The Mark of Destiny trilogy.   The time has come for all to stand together.   In the frigid city of Hailstone, Amelia and Alan have been separated. They had suffered great losses thus far, and now more than ever, their fear and worry are justified. They're trapped in a place where you're either a master or a slave, and where bloodshed is treated as entertainment. If that isn't enough, Amelia's mark continues to grow, and so too does her power. Help comes to them in the most unlikely of forms when the princess of Snowhaven decides to give them an opportunity, not just to escape, but to start a rebellion. Everything takes a turn for the worse when the princess and her knight become trapped in a blizzard, all while Alan's health deteriorates.   Meanwhile, the enemy grows stronger still. Daniel is preparing for war, and he will stop at nothing to win. The time will come to face him once and for all. Amelia can only hope her allies will unite and stand with her. Every man and beast she met along her journey – every friend she'd made. Her success will depend on the bonds she'd forge and whether her trust is reciprocated. But no one could know what would happen when her power reaches its peak. The fight for Halcyon's future has begun, and all must stand united if they wish to prevail.

      Lydia watched Ahad play the guitar. He leaned against a boulder, eyes shut, his face positioned to catch the last warm rays of the setting sun. His long, slender fingers caressed the strings, producing a slow, haunting melody. The music almost made his company tolerable. She was only there because Grandmother had asked her to study this stranger, to get close, to discover what the crew of his starship was up to. Ahad seemed to be so at peace. Despite his unusual clothes and exotic facial features, he wasn’t so different from the local boys. Was he really to blame for his people’s sins? If one
