The Ravenglass Throne is here – the epic fantasy adventure begins now!

I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve now started posting chapters of my new epic fantasy serial, The Ravenglass Throne, on Patreon!

Set centuries before the events of Ravenglass Legends and The Ravenglass Chronicles, this story follows three sisters thrust into a deadly game of politics and power after their father’s assassination.

Meet Irmin, the military commander determined to find her father’s killers at any cost; Adelinde, the scholar who discovers a terrifying threat to the magical foundations of the Kingdom; and Elana, the diplomat navigating treacherous political waters while dealing with her visual impairment.

When their father, the King, is murdered during a public ceremony, these three very different sisters must unite to uncover a conspiracy that threatens not just their family, but the entire Kingdom.

Someone is corrupting the ravenglass—the mysterious substance that powers their civilisation’s bond with wyverns.

As external enemies circle and internal treachery spreads, each sister must use her unique skills to prevent their world from shattering.

Expect political intrigue, complex family dynamics, magical mysteries, and of course, wyverns!

While The Ravenglass Throne stands completely on its own, readers familiar with my other Ravenglass stories might spot some interesting connections and answers to long-standing questions.

The first chapter is available now, with new chapters releasing every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday on Patreon.

Come join us as we unravel the mysteries of The Ravenglass Throne!

Join me in this week’s Author Diary as I embark on an exciting new writing adventure and share my latest reading experiences.

👑 Introducing “The Ravenglass Throne”:

This week marks the beginning of a new venture into YA epic fantasy with my latest project, “The Ravenglass Throne.”

The story unfolds around three princesses thrown into turmoil after their father, the king, is mysteriously assassinated without naming an heir.

Set against a backdrop of looming conspiracy and dark secrets, the narrative explores themes of power, loyalty, and the quest for truth.

📘 Current Reading:

Alongside developing this new tale, I’m engrossed in “Ezzraharden” by Michael J. Sullivan. Sullivan’s ability to weave intricate plots and richly drawn characters never fails to inspire.

I’m reading “Wild Faith” by Talia Levin, a book that offers a fresh perspective on spirituality and belief systems within the context of far-right politics.

Both books provide a wonderful blend of escapism and intellectual engagement, feeding into my creative process.

📅 What’s Next:

As “The Ravenglass Throne” begins to take shape, I’m focused on outlining the complex relationships and political intrigue that drive the heart of the story.

I’m excited to develop this world and its rulers, bringing to life the struggles and triumphs of each princess.

I’d love to hear about your favourite YA fantasy books or any recent reads that have captured your imagination.
