Description:
Gild
Locked away in a castle on the snowy mountains in the Sixth Kingdom of Orea, I have never known freedom.
No one can get in or out. Apart from him.
King Midas, who rescued me from the streets. Who gave me food, shelter, and his heart. Who I promised to love forever.
But when political upheaval sees me sent across kingdoms to a future I no longer understand, everything I thought I knew about King Midas is shattered . . .
Glint
After ten years, I have left the grips of one king only to fall into the hands of another.
I have fought the terrifying Red Raid Pirates, endured the murder of those I care about, and survived the frozen planes of Orea, only to find myself a prisoner of the army of Fourth Kingdom.
Leading the army is Commander Rip, a notorious warrior whose name is whispered in taverns and street corners all over the six kingdoms.
But as I get to know him, I realise that the tales of his brutality aren't true.
Gleam
I was told that being confined was to keep the bad out . . . Until I realized it was about keeping me in.
Midas made me forbidden and weak. Little did he know that I would find my wings and voice - which sings now.
After living amongst the terrifying army of Fourth Kingdom, I find myself, once again, in strange lands and a kingdom surrounded by liars.
Glow
My life has been shaped and controlled by the greed of others, but that ends now.
I have burned down the court of King Midas and from those flames, I will rise and wield my own power.
The problem is, when you turn against a King - everyone turns against you.
But with Slade by my side we will fight the monarchs that come for us. And if we need to become the villains, then so be it.
Gold
I was supposed to die. If it weren’t for Slade, I would have. But he tore a hole the world I know and I went through it. To Annwyn. To home.
Annwyn is the realm of the fae, a magical place full of beauty and danger.
Here, I am known as Lyäri Ulvêre – the golden one gone. And there are people in this world who want to keep me that way.
But I am not that girl in the gilded cage anymore, and I won’t be used again. Nor stopped on my way back to Slade.
