It was suspenseful, awesome and interesting. The characters are intense. – Nathan

Falcon Dagger (Falcon Chronicle Book III)

Falcon Dagger is the thrilling final book in this historical fantasy series. This young adult story collection includes the riveting last novel, a companion novella, and two bonus prequels.

Here fantasy tropes ignite the imagination – the coming 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.

• Kingdom’s Fall: One disguise. One usurper. One defense.
• Falcon Dagger: Warrior. Seeker. Apprentice.
• Cieri’s Daughter: First rival. First oath. First victory.
• Path of the Warrior: Exile. Traitor. Warrior.

Familiar human frailties, a lie, betrayal, and oath-breaking.

In Britannia weakness blooms in the betrayal of a Brother’s hope. Evil waxes by sinuous, deadly, hidden ways to bring about a kingdom’s fall. Until one monk rises up to oppose treachery in his own heart and uncovers the first threads of whispers of a coming king amid long laid plots.

Kyrin bears the heir and the hope of their stronghold. Then a thief steals the Damascus sword from the very hall of Cierheld. Berd, first armsman of Cieri, must reclaim the sword and uncover the traitor. Kyrin’s companion, Celine, vows to find the lost sword first, for she is as strong as any man and no orphan to be pitied.

Among their enemies, the House of Mornoth plots to take the king’s seat. Young Lord Thain Mornoth accuses Berd and Cierheld of terrible crimes, entangling them in webs of deceit and treachery, and the regent’s doubt. But the insidious hand lurking behind Thain will bring a great reset to the land that will end in fire.

Can Berd and Celine break free of the broken oaths around them in time to protect the prince, prove their heart and hand, and lead the people of Britannia in a last battle?

While the coils of danger tighten around them, Lady Myrna, forced by long illness to stay behind, joins forces with an old healer to ward Cierheld and defend the hope of Britannia.

Against a backdrop of old enemies and new alliances the coming king remains hidden. One heir must survive. One must be protected. Or all will end in ash.
For any land is only as good as its king.

Readers who love the epic fantasy adventure of Anna Thayer’s The Knight of Eldaran series, the richness of The Outlaws of Sherwood by Robin McKinley, and the delightful romances of Melanie Dickerson will be drawn into the final struggle of Kyrin Cieri to protect Cierheld stronghold against those who would destroy their very memory.


Falcon Dagger is a resonant canvas of courage, forbidden alliances, and resilient spirits – a heart song to the Master of Stars. –Anna Thayer, THE KNIGHT OF ELDARAN SERIES

Experience the immersive action of A Flame in the North but the adventure, court intrigue, and faith of Illusion’s Reign in this Noblebright series for adults. It is also a clean addition to any teen’s list of good fantasy novels and coming of age fiction where hope is a light in the night.
