Synopses

Gild

Locked away in a castle in the snowy mountains of the Sixth Kingdom of Orea, the narrator has never known freedom. Rescued from the streets by King Midas, she believes she owes him her loyalty and love. When political upheaval sends her across kingdoms, her view of Midas is shattered.

Glint

After ten years, she escapes one king’s grip only to become the prisoner of another. Having faced the Red Raid Pirates, loss and the frozen plains of Orea, she is captured by the army of the Fourth Kingdom. Its leader, Commander Rip, is feared for his reputation, though she begins to question the stories told about him.

Gleam

She was told confinement was meant to keep danger out, until she realises it was about keeping her in. Midas made her forbidden and weak, but she finds her wings and her voice. After living among the Fourth Kingdom’s army, she is drawn into unfamiliar lands and a kingdom surrounded by liars.

Glow

Determined to end a life controlled by others’ greed, she burns down King Midas’s court and resolves to wield her own power. Turning against a king means others turn against her too. With Slade at her side, she prepares to fight the monarchs who come for them, even if it means becoming the villains.
