About this series
Myth says the Guardians ended the Sorcery War by draining all sorcerers of their powers, or killing them. The Guardians then vanished without a trace —and so did magic. But the myths are wrong. Magic wielders lived on in hiding. Now Sorcerer King Nartzeer is recruiting them, in a world that hates and fears their power.
Terrorised by Nartzeer's pre-emptive strike, Ruarnon's Guardian-descent-claiming allies set sail to annihilate Nartzeer. Heir Ruarnon hopes to free their family from Nartzeer's clutches first, but Ruarnon's uncle won't abandon the army he commands to slavery.
Lost Aussie Linh is killing two birds with one stone, using her role as Ruarnon's envoy to potential allies to track down sorcerers to open her magic gateway home. She learns that Nartzeer is rallying a sorcery army while his neighbours mobilise against him, and sorcerers whose awesome power Nartzeer's ideology undermines, the dreaded God Kings are stirring.
With sorcerers on all fronts marching towards mutually assured destruction, Linh and Ruarnon race to reach Nartzeer with the truth of magical ancestry and allegiance, hoping to unite people who are not so different before they utterly destroy each other.

Everywhere he looks, 15-year-old Urmillian sees his people suffering under brutal foreign occupation. High taxes drive poverty and malnutrition, while the execution of anyone suspected of resistance has the people of Tarlah on their knees. Urmillian longs to join his father's uprising and free his people, despite father's orders to protect the family home. When occupying soldiers turn on the Tarlahans, Urmillian's younger brother calls for aid. But the streets are filling with soldiers. If Urmillian doesn't help cut them off, the city will be overrun. So he risks both their lives by abandoning his household's defence and joining his older sister on the front line. An action-packed YA Fantasy short story (7500 words), set before Manipulator's War.

All roads lead to war. Nonbinary Ruarnon is determined to prove their worth as heir to Tarlah's perfect King. Things get complicated when their parents are abducted and they're left ruling Tarlah in the shadow of impending war, with absent allies. Neighbouring King Kyura has no intention of invading Tarlah. But his warmongering subjects long for the glory of expansion. When Kyura rejects their calls for war, assassins threaten his family and mutiny threatens his reign. Stranded Aussie Linh is desperate to return to her family in Australia. But the only transport to her gateway home is Ruarnon's absent allies, sailing to Tarlah's aid. Monsters at sea threaten everyone. Linh's monster observations could save Kyura's people, and clear her homeward path. If she risks her life aiding Ruarnon. But to secure peace with Kyura's unruly subjects, Ruarnon's ultimate test as heir risks betrayal and Tarlah's bloody defeat.

Secrets lie across the seas. Having vanquished the damars, Heir Ruarnon thought they'd secured the safety of Umarinaris' eastern seas. But Nartzeer's murderous creatures are back, the damars handlers are even more alarming and both bar Ruarnon's path to allies needed to recover their abducted parents. The handlers are Linh's chance to confirm that her gateway home (to Australia) —and that sorcerers able (and hopefully willing) to operate it— lie in Umarinaris' dangerous West. In pursuit of allies and Linh's route home, Ruarnon and Linh's voyage clashes with evolving, ever more dangerous damars. They learn magic is still wielded across Umarinaris, that some of the Sorcery War's deadliest weapons survived and that Nartzeer has his own plans for those weapons. Nartzeer's forces threaten to sink Ruarnon and Linh's ship, and crush Ruarnon's potential allies, yet Nartzeer may not be what he seems...
