About the stories

A Day of Fallen Night: Follow Tunuva Melim, a sister of the Priory who has spent fifty years training to slay wyrms — creatures that haven’t been seen since the Nameless One. As younger Priory members question their purpose, political tension rises in the north where Sabran the Ambitious has married the King of Hróth to stave off catastrophe. Their daughter Glorian navigates life in her parents’ formidable shadows, while Dumai, raised in a Seiikinese mountain temple, seeks to rouse sleeping gods. This novel expands the Priory mythos with fresh perspectives, deep lore, and a sweeping sense of destiny.

The Priory of the Orange Tree: An epic fantasy of kingdoms, secret societies, and dragons on the brink of war. Queen Sabran the Ninth, unwed and under threat, must protect her realm by ensuring her lineage endures. Ead Duryan, a lady-in-waiting and secret mage, shields the queen with forbidden magic, while Tané, trained as a dragonrider across the sea, faces choices that could change everything. Richly layered and female-led, this standalone novel has earned a devoted readership for its bold worldbuilding and emotional stakes.
