Heirs of Tirragyl

By Joan Campbell

Description:

Since birth, Nyla has shared everything with her twin brother—royal tutors, the right to the throne of Tirragyl... even their soul. Many believe it wholly belongs to Alexor and should be returned to him regardless of the sacrifice—Nyla's death. However, her future isn't the only one in question.

A threat looms over the kingdom. The influential Lord Lucian intends to seize the Grotto, an underworld settlement known for harboring fugitives. And if legend is to be believed, it is also the hiding place of the most powerful of objects, the Guardian Rock.

As Nyla fights for her life, she realizes she's not only a soul heir but also the sole hope for the kingdom's survival.

Book Takeaway:

There is freedom to be found from all that seeks to bind us, including false beliefs and our past.

Why the author wrote this book:

To entertain and impart truth to my readers. The main theme, which runs through my entire trilogy, is one of freedom from captivity and in this book that captivity takes the form of false beliefs regarding the Queen and an ancient curse placed on the Charab people—the royal assassins. Another theme is that the world looks at strength based on external factors, but true strength is an inner quality of the heart.
