Description

One life. One land. One loyalty.

Long lost heir of her stronghold, Kyrin yearns to escape slavery in Araby and reach freedom in Britannia. But the wazir seeks the power of the death touch at any cost, and Kyrin's adopted father refuses to give him the deadly knowledge. When the wazir takes her second father hostage, Kyrin and her sister rescue him and flee into the desert. Kyrin runs to Britainnia alone to discover the fate of a mysterious emissary, which just might lift the price from their heads.

But ambitious lords and the intrigue she left behind in Araby engulf her stronghold. Torn between a lord's son she has sworn never to hand-fast, a rival, and her father's life, Kyrin struggles to save her people despite their enemies' plots. Only to discover her falcon dagger conceals a secret, the key to life, death, and a traitor deeper yet.

Excerpt –The boy made a small sound, his eyes on her weapons.

Kyrin caught back her smile, and he lowered his gaze quickly. So. The falcon dagger and the stick Tae had carved her were foreign to him. Her thawb and desert cloak were simple, but her weapons rivaled those of a rich warrior. She supposed she was a riddle indeed.

A tale of danger and disguise, Falcon Flight is a medieval coming of age adventure with a thread of romance. An alternate historical, with Korean martial skill and surprise twists, this "what if" novel is full of clean thrills for avid readers. For fans of the riveting action of Lilith Saintcrow's A Flame in the North, the Christian adventure of Carrie Cotton's The Huntress, and the court intrigue of Illusion's Reign.

Wholesome threads of love and friendship, strong heroes and heroines, and save the kingdom tropes with a dash of the mystery novel and literary fiction make this a satisfying read.
