Book 1

Ana is running for her life. And she has dragged Captain Drayton along, or did he drag her? Either way they are fleeing across the kingdom from visions, a nasty mage and an apathetic lord.

The young Ed Forest is also running. He doesn’t know if he is running from what he knows he can’t be, or towards help to be the man his parents had hoped he would become.

Something has drawn them all to an old man in the mountains. He ran away long ago, and he may not be the willing help that they need him to be.

This unlikely group aim to restore the crown to the boy king, even if he doesn’t want it. Can they survive magic, evil relatives and one enormous dragon? Or is one amongst them a greater danger to their quest?


Book 2

The Lost Endeavour

by Georgina Makalani

Published 3 April 2021

Ana is locked away from both her magic and the world, Ed and Dray are lost amongst the trees and Ende is just…lost.

Losing the magic she only just discovered, Ana fears she will never be what she needs to be to help her friends. While new friends offer support, they might just be helping her to help themselves. Particularly the little dragon who only wants for Ed.

Ed can’t decide if returning to the capital is a good idea, and Dray isn’t as focused on the task as he should be. But there may be little choice in what they do next; something hunts for them in the shadows and the trees may not be enough to protect them.

And Endeavour has far more important things than kings and crowns to consider. But can he ignore the shadows calling forth something even darker?
