The Armoured Butterfly

Seventeen-year-old Adaliah is the warrior and Lady of Targe, but when she wakes up in the Kest River presumed dead by the world, she has lost her memory and is being hunted by unknown forces. Injured and alone, she must put together the pieces of her broken past and shattered kingdom. The world is at war with a tyrannical king who is searching for four powerful swords. If King Cades finds them, his victory will be sealed, and his power over life and death will be complete. The only hope of survival is in the hands of Adalia - can she find her place in this war-torn world?

The defeat of Cades in the Northern Invasion brought two years of peace to the Rhea Lands, but, on the anniversary of his death, the threat of war returns with an assault on Liane Palace, Elhian’s capture, and the mysterious darkening of Queen Alexia’s personality. The Zalem cult behind Cades has woken to revenge his death and revive his plans to conquer Targe . . . and to kill the A’zyon Warrior.

The Zalems remain a cruel force that worship evil and power. Now, their Supreme Overlord is taking steps to personally rectify the cult’s past failures. Assassination and theft herald the beginning of a war that, if lost, will see the kingdoms of the Rhea Lands fade from history forever. With the help of Alexia, Darj, and Elhian, Adaliah must race against time to unravel messages from the past and save her people from the Zalems’ eternal plans before all is lost to darkness.
