Deceived

By J M Archer

War looms on their doorstep.
Hope lies with an ancient enemy.

The elven kingdom of Bysra has survived one battle, but another lurks on the horizon. Every shifter in Exterrah is gathering outside the capital city under the direction of a mysterious traitor. Still reeling from the first onslaught, the elves will never survive. Not alone.

With the kingdom's future teetering on the edge of a blade and death lingering in the shadows, Prince Aven is tasked with reforming an ancient alliance with the elves' sworn enemies: dwarves. The journey is treacherous, and even more is at stake when humans join the quest.

The Door to Earth is blocked by the enemy. Maddie and her friends are trapped in Exterrah, and tagging along on the journey. Through a longing for adventure and a heart that carries the elves' plight as though it were her own, Maddie is determined to help however she can. But she is a distraction Aven cannot afford.

Danger lies around every turn as evil rises. If they cannot convince the dwarves to join their war, Bysra will fall. Time is running out.
