Book description
Karigan G'ladheon was a regular girl until she stumbled across a dying
man. There were two arrows embedded in his back, and wherever his horse
was taking him, he was going to die before they got there. He gave
Karigan his horse, his cloak and his brooch - the symbol that he was one
of the King's Green Riders - and, with them, his mission. To deliver a
message to the King. He made her swear to do it . . . even though the
Shadow Man who killed him would be hot on her trail. That mission made
her a Green Rider. Now, her first legendary mission is long complete.
Karigan has learnt to wield the magic her Green Rider brooch allows her
to access, and she's used it to defy some of the most terrifying dark
magicians of the age. But while Mornhavon the Black has gone, he's not
defeated. His restless spirit haunts Blackveil, the lethal, corrupt
forest that stands beyond a failing magical wall at the edge of King
Zachary's territory. Karigan's destiny is leading her there, and when
her King asks her to join a mission to Blackveil to save the remnants of
a dying race, it seems she has little choice but to follow it . . .
Kristen Britain lives in a log cabin in Maine where she writes full time
and pursues her interests of reading, guitar playing and cartoon
illustration. She enjoys exploring the magical places around her and can
often be found paddling a canoe in stillwater, ambling through the woods
to mountain summits, or sitting along the rocky shore listening,
watching and daydreaming.
