NEW RELEASE

When Legends Rise

Book 4 in the Highcliff Guardians Series

Over twenty years have passed since the fall of South March. Secluded behind a spectral mist, it’s time for Ouderling Wys to face the demon that has haunted her family for centuries. Struggling to deal with the Dragon Witch Wraith, a more complicated issue arises. 


A mischievous elfling turns Ouderling’s life on its head, and the future of the kingdom hangs in the balance.


With the Dragon Witch Wraith preparing to attack, High Wizard Aelfwynne and his bumbling apprentice must act before the new threat arises.


In the epic conclusion of the Highcliff Guardians, dragons, elves, dwarfs, demons, and the emergence of a new race, square off. If Ouderling’s plan to bring peace to her kingdom should fail, darkness will envelop the world.  

This is a compelling fantasy story about another place in time. The story draws you in and the imaginative writing keeps you reading . You are laughing, crying, or glued to the page to see what happens next. One of the best fantasy books I’ve read in a long time!

Praise for the
Soul Forge Universe

This story is fantastic. Reecah is a beautifully crafted young lady with an amazing history. She is incredibly likeable and I love the story of each of the dragons. Over all I cant wait to buy the next book so that I can continue to travel with Reecah as she tries to save the dragons.

You couldn't want anything more from an epic fantasy book! Excitement, action, DRAGONS, wonderful character and relationship development, and memorable characters. You don't have to read all the other books in the Soul Forge Universe to love this one, it's just a truly enjoyable, epic read.
