This box-set includes the Blade Trilogy-the first three books (complete arc) of The Magelands Eternal Siege: The Mortal Blade, The Dragon's Blade, and The Prince's Blade.

Stolen from his home, Corthie Holdfast has arrived in the City of the Eternal Siege as a new Champion.

He must fight alongside the Blades, whose lives are dedicated to the defense of the City against the hordes of monstrous Greenhides; or die at the hands of the Gods who rule.

Maddie Jackdaw, a young Blade, faces her last chance. Thrown out of every unit defending the City, either she takes on a new role, or she will be sent to the Rats, a company of misfits given the perilous tasks beyond the Great Walls.

Her new role, if she takes it, will bring her face to face with her deepest fears, for beneath the walls, in a secret and hidden lair, lies a dragon, imprisoned and waiting…

Magelands Eternal Siege

The Magelands Eternal Siege: The Blade Trilogy: Books 1-3

A city ruled by Gods, a mortal champion, a misfit girl, and a disobedient dragon… 

Stolen from his home, Corthie Holdfast has arrived in the City of the Eternal Siege as a new Champion.

He must fight alongside the Blades, whose lives are dedicated to the defense of the City against the hordes of monstrous Greenhides; or die at the hands of the Gods who rule.

Maddie Jackdaw, a young Blade, faces her last chance. Thrown out of every unit defending the City, either she takes on a new role, or she will be sent to the Rats, a company of misfits given the perilous tasks beyond the Great Walls.

Her new role, if she takes it, will bring her face to face with her deepest fears, for beneath the walls, in a secret and hidden lair, lies a dragon, imprisoned and waiting…

The Mortal Blade

A Champion in chains, a Demigod in hiding, and a Dragon betrayed.

The new Prince of Tara rules the City of the Eternal Siege and nothing will get in his way-all must kneel before him or die.

But what is power without the woman he desires? For three hundred years, the Prince has longed for Aila, wanting her as his bride.

Now that the City is in his hands, he will do anything to possess her, even if it means plunging the City into a new Civil War.

Beneath the Great Walls, the heart of the black dragon is filled with despair. Back in chains with no hope of freedom, she longs for death. Her only reason to live is her rider-but is Maddie enough?

The Dragon's Blade

The nightmare has begun … but where is the Black Dragon?

After a thousand years, the Eternal Enemy has breached the Great Walls, devastating great swathes of the City. Thousands lie dead, while the survivors huddle behind the old and decaying walls of the inner defenses.

With the greenhides on one side, and the corrupt and cruel regime of the ruling Gods on the other, the people of the City await their end.

All that stands in the way is a disgraced Champion, a tortured God, and two Mortals from a forgotten legend …

The Prince's Blade

Lostwell-a dying world of volcanos, earthquakes, endless wastes, and wild dragons.

For Corthie and Aila, Lostwell is a stepping stone to the home of the Holdfasts, and for Blackrose and Maddie it is the way to Dragon Eyre. But for Belinda, Lostwell means something else-the land where she once ruled as Queen.

Within the sanctuary of the Falls of Iron, the exiles from the city of Pella and Tara make their plans, but unknown to them, on Implacatus, the home of the Gods, a task force is being assembled-their mission, to find and secure the source of Salve, the miracle material that grants everlasting youth to the gods.

Sable Holdfast works alone. Tasked with finding a Quadrant, the former assassin is trying to redeem herself. Can she stop the gods of Implacatus from finding the world of Maddie and Aila, and help Corthie get home, or will she succumb to the old temptations . . .

Falls of Iron

Following his victory at the Falls of Iron, the champion Corthie Holdfast starts to believe he has a destiny. He is the chosen one, the hero who will defeat the Ascendants, and end their tyrannical rule of Lostwell.

As the Black Dragon tries to assemble an army from the wild and outlaw dragons of the Catacombs, the Gods of Implacatus plan their revenge, sending two Ascendants to regain control of Lostwell.

Their mission-to find the fabled Sextant, and to destroy the Holdfasts forever.

Paths of Fire

The Holdfasts of Lostwell are scattered. Sable, injured by Belinda, hides among the wild dragons of the Catacombs, while they plot to drive her and Maddie out.

Taken by the former God-Queen of Tara, Kelsey faces a life in captivity, alongside Aila; while Corthie lies sick and broken-his dreams of destiny in tatters, his hopes in ruins.

All that stands between the Ascendants and victory is Belinda, who faces her own struggles as she attempts to keep her resistance a secret. Battling her fears, only she has the power to free the land where once she was queen.
