The Dagger Of Dresnia

by Satima Flavell

Overview

Queen Ellyria just wants her sick triplet sons to live, each ruling over a third of the kingdom as their dying father wished. When she finds herself trapped in a deadly bargain with a Dark Spirit, she recruits a band of young mages to help - but a terrible curse takes over. The Dark Spirit befriends her enemies and seduces her friends, and Ellyria soon finds that famine, pestilence, betrayal and bereavement are all in its arsenal. Can Ellyria unite the elvish and mortal sides of her family and in so doing, save the kingdom? See Goodreads, Amazon, sqmag.com for some of the excellent reviews.

About the Author

My first full-length published work, The Dagger of Dresnia, is the first book in The Talismans Trilogy. Book two, The Cloak of Challiver will be released soon as an ebook here, along with a physical book available soon afterwards. You might also like to check out my short story 'La Belle Dame' in the anthology Mythic Resonance. (I've loved fantasy all my life, as you can see from my list of influences below) My first publication was a poem in The Manchester Guardian when I was seven. I continued to write poems, vignettes and non-fiction throughout my childhood and teenage years, and as an adult I graduated to writing reviews, interviews and feature articles for The Australian, The West Australian, Music Maker, ArtsWest, Dance Australia and other journals. (Under the name Carol Flavell Neist, I still write occasional reviews for the Artshub website.) However, I did not start writing fiction until I hit my fifties, so now I'm trying to make up for lost time!
