The Elvish Prophecy (Book 1 of The Paladin Chronicles)
850 years ago the once mighty Western Elves were fatally weakened by the sacking of Elvish Troia and then almost totally destroyed by a cataclysmic invasion of barbarian hordes that came soon after. They now remain only in scattered settlements in the Black Sea region of Anatole. The Eastern Elves hold the last of the elf cities, the magnificent mountain fortress of Elgard to the east and north of Anatole, but the elves themselves are fading. The have lost almost all their magic, and they are hardly greater than the humans they once ruled. The final destruction of the elves has been foretold two thousand years before, and now the time is all but upon them. Only through an ancient prophecy can they be saved, but it will require every bit of love, sacrifice and courage that a group of extraordinary people have to give. An elf princess, an eleven year old Gypsy orphan girl, and a mercenary tribesman are the first to be called. They must unite in a desperate search through Anatole for the key to the survival of the Elves, but first they have to stay alive! An epic fantasy set in Greek Turkey on the cusp of an invasion by the unbeatable Makedóne army from the west and the appearance of a new and far more dangerous barbarian far to the East.
The Defence of Troia (Book 2 of The Paladin Chronicles)
The Makedóne army under Parmenion has crossed the Bósporos and is carving its way through the Greek maritime cities of Bithynia with ridiculous ease. The Greek city of Troia is now an ally of Aiolía but has been seriously weakened after losing the last war. Of the cities of Anatolē that line the entrance to the Black Sea, Troia is the great prize and now it stands in desperate peril. Philippos the Makedóne king plans to increase his army several fold and when he does he will overcome all possible resistance. The Athenai navy is likely to attack before that.
Hakeem, his wife the elf queen Elana, and their adopted daughter Jacinta ride in haste to join the city as it prepares for a siege. But the large armies headed to Troia are not the only danger for the pitiful few defenders. As something seems to go wrong with the preparations the mood of the city turns dangerous. If the populous revolts, the small city garrison will be unable to maintain order, and all will be lost. Also, while the elves have most of their magic, pitted against them are those whose dark powers are undiminished.
Elana begins to get premonitions that a great catastrophe is approaching the beleaguered city. If they can survive the coming siege, Elana and Jacinta must resume the search for the lost items of elvish magic, but how can they find artefacts lost a thousand years before the destruction of elvish Troia?
The Defence of Troia, book 2 of the Paladin Chronicles, continues the story of the struggle to save the elves and their human allies.
The Gathering Storm (Book 3 of The Paladin Chronicles)
Jacinta has been badly injured in her fight with a daimôn. It seems she will have to give up her dream of being a warrior. A group of young women desperately need her help, but how can she help them when she can’t help herself?
The elves and their allies have a period of peace, but it is an illusion. There is a great storm building far to the East.
The Hun are coming for the last elves of Anatole and the Transkaukasos in numbers too great to comprehend. The evil wizard Æloðulf lives and when the hordes come they will be backed by the darkest magic of all.
While Philippos is dead the Makedónes are now led by Aléxandros, his even more dangerous son.
The elves are fewer and far weaker than they were when they faced the last barbarian horde. They will face war on multiple fronts leading up to the final desperate defence of Elgard.
It is a battle they cannot truly win. Will this be the end of the elves and all that stand with them?
The Assassin’s Quest (Book 4 of The Paladin Chronicles)
Æloðulf, the last of the Illvættir Wizards, is finally dead but it has been at a terrible cost. Jacinta and Elana were destroyed with nothing left to bury. Hakeem is finished, a broken man. But is everything as it seems? And what about Gansükh, who still lives?
Jess a Nubian assassin, mysterious and deadly, must embark on a perilous journey through an ancient world for answers to these questions and questions about herself. Her journey will take her through the desert lands of Central Asia which have been made desperate and hungry by the crippling drought and torn apart by war. She is joined by Pandora, a Greek slave girl searching for her home. The two become lovers, but can the troubled, reclusive Jess allow others to love her? And what about those who join them on their journey: the handsome Avestan man, Iraj and Rohana the girl who is dying?
Physical danger is not the only thing the friends must face. And if Jess and Pandora reach all the way to the Troad what will they find there?
