The Taellaneth
Welcome to The Taellaneth
In the world where the Taellaneth exists, magic is real and in common use. The three dominant races, the Erith, the shifkin and humans, have an uneasy peace.
The series follows Arrow, a magician raised and trained by the Erith but despised by them. The Erith see her as a useful tool, nothing more. But Arrow is much more than that.
Please note: the Taellaneth is a five book series, and designed to be read in order, from Book 1. Later books contain spoilers for previous books. I've tried to avoid too many spoilers in the book descriptions, but if you're like me and you prefer to follow the story from beginning to end, reading in order is definitely recommended.
Information about the books can be found below. The individual books are available in e-book and print format via Amazon.
And, if you want to get the whole series in one go, an e-book containing the entire series is also available - details below.
Concealed
The Taellaneth - Book 1
A fragile peace, a suspicious death, and secrets that could destroy everyone.
Oath-bound to the arrogant Erith in exchange for her life, Arrow's freedom is days away when they set her one last task; investigate the death of a high-ranking shape-changer, one of their old enemies.
The shape-changers suspect the Erith of murder and Arrow nearly becomes the first victim in a new war between races. She’s given a chance to seek answers. Except she's digging into secrets someone doesn't want uncovered. Not only is her freedom at risk, but so is her life. It will take all of her skill with magic to live long enough to find the answers in time to avert a bloodbath.

Revealed
The Taellaneth - Book 2
A killer caught, the mastermind still at large, and an exile growing into her power.
Arrow’s freedom from the Erith is finally in her grasp. But there’s a rogue magician at large, skilled in unclean magic, whose ambition threatens everyone and everything, including the life Arrow wants to live.
The rogue is hell-bent on destruction and, with her power unlocked, it looks like Arrow is the only one who can stop him

Betrayed
The Taellaneth - Book 3
A missing war mage. Death in the heartland.
Settling into her new life in the human world, the last thing Arrow expects is a request for aid from the Erith. The Erith’s favourite war mage is missing and Arrow is asked to investigate.
For the first time in her life, she is allowed into the Erith’s fabled heartland. It does not take long for Arrow to realise that the heartland is like the Erith themselves. Full of wonder, breathtakingly beautiful, and deadly.
Arrow is drawn into investigating a death at the very heart of the Erith’s homeland with the growing sense that there is far more wrong and far more at stake than a simple murder and missing mage.

Worse than that, the peace treaty that holds shape-changers, humans and Erith from all-out war is on the brink of collapse.
Arrow is once more in the middle of a deadly power struggle.
