Lily’s Passage
Book One in the War of the Valleyear Trilogy
War wages in the land of Alderdale. After nearly four decades of conflict, the Elven kingdom has prospered, but at the cost of the other species within its borders. With racial tensions high and confusion turning people against each other, the magic that once united the kingdom now threatens to tear it apart.
Reeling with dreams of grandeur, Farrah is a village girl who longs to see the world. She never thought she would get involved in anything bigger than a life in the border town she grew up in, but when she finds a body in the woods one day, her life changes forever.
Embittered by his heritage and running from his past, Asken is no stranger to hardship. He knows all too well the horrors of war, no matter how much he tries to forget it all. But a chance meeting in the market pulls him deeper into the conflict he wanted to stay out of.
Thrown together by unlikely circumstances, Farrah and Asken embark on a journey in which they must discover the meaning of loyalty, that choices have consequences, and that truth comes at a high price.
