The Watchers of Moniah, Book One
An elite
Watcher trainee, fifteen-year-old Princess Adana had everything going for her.
Everything, that is, until her mother, the queen, dies. Too young to be queen
herself, her mother’s last royal act is a decree that seals Adana’s fate—she’s
to be sent to the neighboring Kingdom of Elwar for her own protection. She’ll
be alone there, as the only person Adana knew in Elwar—her betrothed, Prince
Serrin—dies at the same time as her mother.
The three-year
stay in Elwar seems like a death sentence, as she will be separated from her
telepathically-bonded giraffe and removed from her Watcher training. It only
gets worse when she meets the person who will be teaching her about the rules
of court protocol and politics—Serrin’s stepmother, Queen Quilla, a
sharp-tongued woman who dislikes everything Adana stands for.
When a
vision shows her the existence of Maligon—a tyrant thought killed twenty years
prior—she realizes everything is not as it seems in the Four Kingdoms. Evil is
at work in the shadows, and Maligon will stop at nothing short of total control
over the Four Kingdoms. Will she be ready in time to claim her birthright, or
will Maligon succeed with his malevolent plans?
The Watchers in Exile, Book Two
Who do you trust,
when everything falls apart?
Attacked as she travels home to Moniah for her coronation,
Princess Adana struggles to hold onto her kingdom. Driven from her heavily
guarded caravan by soldiers she previously thought loyal, Adana follows the
lead of the royal giraffes and flees to a small village in the Monian
hinterland. Separated in the attack, her betrothed, Prince Kiffen of Elwar, is
forced in the opposite direction, and he leads the survivors of the battle to
the Border Keep between the two kingdoms.
Although isolated from each other, Adana and Kiffen can
communicate through their telepathically-bonded royal giraffes, and together
they seek to build an army to stop the traitor Maligon. Doing so may not be
possible, though, as he has already overthrown the kingdoms of Belwyn and
Teletia, and is using the couple’s betrothal to turn the people of both Moniah
and Elwar against them as his army races across the savanna to capture the Seat
of Authority in Moniah.
Maligon excels at turning loyal subjects into traitors, and
Adana and Kiffen must find a way to trust not only each other, but those around
them, while protecting themselves from within. Turncoats abound, and if Adana
and Kiffen fail to recognize the ones in their midst, all hope will be lost for
the Four Kingdoms.
