Falcon Heart

di Azalea Dabill (Autore)

Dynamos Press, 2017

A riveting medieval adventure with a thread of mystery, Falcon Heart is the first novel in a four book series where Noblebright tropes ignite the imagination – the lost heir, evil lords, court intrigue, haven and hunt, rivals and romance. From second chances to powerful enemies, trials of destiny to oaths kept, each story offers a spark of hope, a heart of courage, and an echo of meaning. First daughter. First enemy. First escape. When slavers seize stronghold first daughter Kyrin Cieri from the coast of Britannia, Kyrin finds a mystery, martial skill, and friendship closer than blood. With a strange dagger from her murdered mother's hand, an exiled warrior from the East, and a peasant girl, Kyrin is destined to face the sword that took her mother. A falcon pursues her through tiger-haunted dreams, love, and war in the Araby sands. Caught in the caliph's court intrigue, she combats deadly treachery to save those she loves. Kyrin must outwit more than a blade, dagger against sword, forgiveness against hate. This Noblebright read is for fans of wholesome books like Carrie Cotton's Medieval Christian Fiction The Huntress. Readers who enjoy the military thread in The Blue Sword and the clean thrill of Anna Thayer's epic fantasy The Traitor's Heir will be drawn into Kyrin's world of courage and faith, as a young adult coming of age in this immersive, intriguing historical fantasy series. Excerpt – Beyond the approaching storm-veil, the cold waves of the North Sea thundered against the cliffs. The raging echoes shivered in her ears. Storm-wind scented with smoke, damp leaves, and the grass of the hills swept the grey mist away from yard, tower, and wall. The sudden cold vastness of grass and stone called to her. To see the eagles who has passed so many seasons agone. She could almost catch a bit of red cloak—hear the shishing of swords from sheaths—see the eagle they carried as their standard. Lords of decision and battle, prey of their choices.
