Split Kingdoms Series

In a shattered world haunted by the past Mage Wars, a brave few are all that stand between the unspeakable terrors slithering out of the Scourge and total chaos… Lel Morgaine is a myth chaser. Her blade of hallowed silver is her steadfast friend, while the talking skull-shaped pendant at her neck keeps her company.   But hunting monsters is not all she does. She's also searching for her missing father.   When she arrives in Arenthia, where magic is forbidden and ancient traditions rule, she is falsely accused of theft and dragged into the Wild Hunt.             She may be trained to kill monsters, but she's ill-equipped to handle this predicament. For once she's in the Hunt, she cannot escape.   Lel must journey to the Sword-in-the-Stone, a soul-judging entity that offers a second chance only to the worthy.   Along the way, she will face unexpected allies and adversaries, including Prince Collin, who holds the key to her father's location, and Julian, a fellow prisoner with questionable motives.   In a kingdom full of secrets and betrayals, will Lel survive the ultimate test at the Sword-in-the-Stone?   Myth Chaser is perfect for readers who love hidden mysteries, strong bonds formed on epic quests, and stories told from multiple perspectives.

Haunted by betrayal, Lel, the monster huntress with a talking skull pendant, pursues the one question that burns brighter than her tenacity: Where is her father? Her search leads to Julian, the brooding boy she thought she'd left behind, rekindling a friendship fractured by secrets and lies. Together, they embark on a world-spanning quest, chasing whispers of her father across the sea. But shadows lurk beyond the horizon. Julian's obsession with Lel threatens to consume him, and a chance encounter with Collin, the prince from Arenthia, throws their fragile alliance into chaos. As Lel delves deeper, a shocking truth emerges, adding another layer to her father's disappearance and causing her to doubt his intentions. Can she navigate the treacherous web of deceit and hidden agendas, or will the secrets of the past consume her entirely? On this perilous journey, Lel must confront not only monstrous threats but also the demons within, discovering that the greatest betrayal might come from the place she least expected.
