Have you read the fantasy The Girl of Dorcha Wood (Daughter of Erabel #1) by Kristin Ward @KWardAuthor #DarkFantasy #Fantasy

Updated on 12/10/2023 by Kayelle Allen

Treacherous.
Evil.
Dark.
Dorcha Wood is all of these.

And none of them.

The people of Felmore talk of Dorcha Wood in whispers, if they speak of it at all, fearing the wrath of the Cù-Sìth should their words be carried on the wind. Those murdering beasts still roam the darkness of the forest, the last remnants of the cursed Aos Sí—a race of elves long since vanished from the world.

But to seventeen-year-old Fiadh, it is home. A haven. A forest whose secrets become known only when it chooses to reveal them. Her life is one of balance until the outside world shatters it.

From the moment Fiadh set eyes on Gideon, the peaceful rhythm of her life was lost. As a new path unfolds, Fiadh confronts the reality of old hatreds, the consequences of things hidden, and the truth of who she really is.

The Girl of Dorcha Wood is book one of four in the Daughter of Erabel series!

Content Warning: As a dark historical fantasy, this series contains violent, medieval battle scenes in addition to passages containing blood and gore.

Paranormal fairytale with a mystery in Wedding of the Torn Rose by Brian A Mendonca #Fantasy #Mystery

Updated on 10/31/2023 by Kayelle Allen

As torn petals of a rose fall, a hero must rise in a race against destiny. What starts as a fairy tale rescue spirals into an intricate web of dark fantasy laced with intrigue and magic.

After the downtrodden merchant Kaine saves the runaway Princess Lydia from an unexpected monster, he feels inexplicably drawn to her. Lydia's uncanny knowledge of his deepest secrets looms over him, suggesting she knows more about him than he has revealed.

However, there is little time to investigate this mystery. The princess is betrothed to the magic-wielding Throatian Kingdom, and Lydia's father has rewarded Kaine with a job offer he cannot refuse.

As the rehearsal dinner for Lydia's arranged wedding unfolds, tension simmers amidst foreign customs and whispered conversations. The Throatian Royal family, draped in magic, is keen to forge an alliance with the Darian Kingdom.

Meanwhile, Lydia, now fully aware of her royal responsibilities, summons Kaine for a private meeting in the chilling stillness of the graveyard. Her impending wedding signifies more than a pact of sword and sorcery, and something else—dark and twisted—stirs in the shadows.

With time dwindling short, and the ceremony happening the next day, will Kaine unshackle himself from his past to embrace the guardian he is destined to become? Or will the ties binding him to Lydia be torn apart like petals in the wind?

A Grudge is Born

Just because you're chosen doesn't mean you want to be.

Four years before Nicolas Percival Carnegie was reluctantly chosen to deliver a message, Auron of Tellmark, the legendary Dawnblade, was lumbered with a task he didn't want.

Going from a life of carefree hero work to having the future of the Guild of Heroes' in his hands, Auron finds himself completely out of his depth.

But he's the Dawnblade. What task can't he excel at?

Maybe he will find out when an old enemy returns, hellbent on ensuring that this future never comes to pass and that everything Auron loves is torn down.

This could be Auron's greatest challenge to date, and he would be much happier facing it alone.

Honor. Duty. Ritual. One of these may kill her #Excerpt The Last Vhalgenn by Kayelle Allen #FantasyBooks #Readers

Updated on 10/10/2023 by Kayelle Allen

In this scene, Raik, the Vhalgenn, has taken the wetnurse and the newborn prince into the mountains. The one thing they must avoid is for the babe to be seen by his father, Orix, the king. Not until the child has been passed beneath the Gates of Life. This story is all from Raik's point of view.

The sun was straight overhead and despite the cool air of the foothills, my head felt baked. Time and again, I had to remove my hat and wipe my brow. When we reached an overlook, I fanned myself with the brim. Rising in the stirrups to look down, I followed the river's path.

A groan escaped before I could stop it.

"What's wrong?" Estria craned her neck to see.

"They made better time than I expected."

She squinted toward the river, a hand shielding her eyes. "From back 'ere, I can't see a bloody thing."

The small figures on horses, far below, followed the river. The horseman in front carried an emerald banner with streamers. The cream-colored horse in the center of the procession sported gold-trimmed black leather and bright emerald ribbons woven into its pale mane. He was never one for hiding who and what he was.

"Raik!" Estria backhanded my arm to gain attention. "If you don't tell me 'oo it is down there, I'll..."

"Orix. He's come to stop us."
