Publisher Description

Destiny balances on a dagger’s edge, and where it will tip is anybody’s guess.

The Knights of Despair are free to invade Euryma—if there is anything left to conquer.

Remnant Magic continues to scour the land, obliterating everything in its path.

While the Dominion crumbles, Declan’s attention turns to the magical blade that has taken so much from him: Winterthorn.

As alliances shift, the dead rise, and the nature of magic itself comes into question, Declan is left with a terrible choice.

It is easy to kill your enemies. It is harder to murder your friends.

The Keeper of the Crystal Blade is the third instalment in the Winterthorn Saga. A contemporary fantasy for fans of Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, and Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials Trilogy.

Buy now and continue the adventure of the Winterthorn Saga.
