The Warriors of Valishna (Cartharia Book 1)
by Spencer Reaves McCoy
A new power is rising.
The Black King, Richard Sullivan, has declared war on the kingdom of Arinford: the first war in centuries. He has shown the world his strength by destroying Valishna, killing thousands of people and razing the Arinford city to the ground. He rules a much larger kingdom, and the military he commands grows daily with fanatical supporters.
Matilyn Malevus stands at the heart of the Arinford Guard, one of the few priests to escape the fall of valishna. If she wishes to survive, she must learn to evolve in this medieval military setting: first as a priest, then as a soldier, and finally as a leader.
Joined by the few friends she escaped Valishna with, they together are forced to cope with death, wavering faith, and the strain of separation, all while trying to keep a rag-tag team of soldiers alive as they trek through enemy territory.
Their lives may seem complicated, but their mission is simple: kill the Black King.
Warriors of Valishna, the first volume of the Cartharia series, is a story of war and magic. It is a story of politics and deception. It is a story of romance of betrayal. It is a story about the Greater Good…
… and the need for revenge.
