Messenger, magic wielder, and knight Karigan G'ladheon fights to save king and country from dark magic and a looming war in this seventh novel of the New York Times bestselling Green Rider series

After her capture at the hands of Grandmother and the Second Empire, Karigan G'ladheon is making halting progress towards recovery. Karigan takes on increasingly dangerous missions, haunted by the specter of her torturer, Nyssa, and sinking ever further into the mire of her recollections of the past and the losses she's sustained.

Meanwhile, the forces of the Second Empire are moving on Sacoridia and their primary target is a vulnerable garrison that guards a crucial mountain pass. Faced with new fatherhood and a country on the verge of war, King Zachary sends a contingent of soldiers and Green Riders to the pass—but his own recovery from the events of the north is not yet complete either.

Reunited with her fellow Riders at the pass, Karigan takes on a leadership role, but quickly finds that the Riders are not as she last left them. As tension mounts and war draws ever closer to the heart of Sacoridia, Karigan must discover what it truly means to be a Rider and a hero of the realm—and what sacrifices must be made to truly heal from her past.

Great Series

I love this series and although I have seen the frustration over Karagan’s disbelief In herself sometimes . I have to say that the author truly seems to understand PTSD. I will admit parts are hard and frustrating as you want to tell her you are you you got this. In truth when suffering the things she has it is sadly easier to fall into a deep self doubt.
I usually prefer to not read about people suffering from PTSD as Ii hits close to home.. but this was a great book. And the way she expels it I think is a great healing metaphor.
I do t want to spoil it for anyone.
I love the addition of Anna!!
As always I am ready for the next book!!!

Very well done!

I have read the physical book, and listened to the audiobook. Both are worth doing! Very well performed! Very well written!

Thank you!

Great story!

Great story! Beautifully read! Ellen Archer does a fabulous job with these books. I highly recommend it.

Another fine story by Kristen with one caveat!

Another outstanding story in the continuing Green Rider saga and Karigan G'ladheon’s adventures across Sacoridia. The relationship between Karigan and King Zachary continues to develop while war with Second Empire begins and other conflicts are unleashed. The story ends on a cliffhanger. My caveat to new reader/listeners of Kristen Britain, is that she must be the modern world’s slowest published author. Count on your listening devise, ebook reader, or actual book gathering dust before the next book is published!

EPIC storyline from book 1 and on!

this is DO NOT MISS type of book. the story continues to evolve and expand as it goes on. It seems straightforward in the first couple of books but as you delve further into the expanse... similar to a riding trail you come upon unexpected turns, hills, and joyfully challenging portions of the journey. Do not pass on this series. You will regret missing out on this adventure.
