Trine Rising: The Kinderra Saga: Book 1

by C.K. Donnelly

Overview

 

Not all gifts are blessings...

 

Sixteen-summer-old Mirana Pinal is one of the few to have ever possessed all three magical powers of the Aspects. She has terrifying visions, however, that if she wields her powers, her homeland of Kinderra will be destroyed-through her. Desperate to keep her dark fate from unfolding, she tells no one about her destructive destiny but her beloved Teague Beltran, a young apprentice herbsman born without powers.

 

When Mirana receives alarming premonitions of an enemy attack on Kinderra, she is forced to reveal to her people that she is a Trine to warn them of the impending assault.

 

As the Kinderrans fight to hold armies of a cunning and ruthless enemy warlord at bay, Mirana must decide if using her powers will aid her people-or will bring them more peril.

About the Author

While other kids read comic books under the covers with a flashlight at bedtime, C.K. DONNELLY wrote fan fiction and fantasy stories. She used her love of writing to pursue a career in journalism and was honored with several press awards for business and economic reporting. She has also held careers in healthcare, and currently runs her own freelance writing and marketing support firm. She resides in Arizona with her oh-so-patient husband and her little black dog (who is equally patient). She no longer writes under the covers by flashlight. Usually.

TRINE RISING was full of twists and turns that I was not expecting. ... I could tell that the author planned out this whole story to make it believable, entertaining, and nail-bitingly good. - Rabia Tanveer for Readers' Favorite

TRINE RISING is a treat. ... C.K. Donnelly creates a culture, language, and characterization comparable to J.R.R. Tolkien, suspense equal to Agatha Christie, and cliffhangers like those of Dan Brown. ... A refreshing new series that all readers of fantasy, mystery, and suspense will love. - Darlene Ziebell, Author & Business Strategist

This powerful fantasy story with complex characters in a unique and well-thought-out world-complete with its own lexicon-will make you shudder at the antagonist's perceptions of 'right' and 'wrong' and cheer for the protagonists on their perilous quests. - Ann Narcisian Videan, book shepherd, and author of the Delfaerune Rhapsody fantasy series

Brilliantly written story! ... Donnelly's world-building and description are so vivid I could taste Mirana's fear on my tongue and sense the Aspects jarring my bones. I even found myself defending the villain almost as much as I despised him. - Lisa M. Streit, writer, AZ

What a thrilling ride! Cindy Kibbe's fantasy epic, TRINE RISING, has it all-adventure, romance, humor and good vs evil. It's on par with any J.R.R. Tolkien, Terry Brooks or Brandon Sanderson titles. I'm making room in my bookcase because I can't wait for more tales from Kinderra! Superb! - Carrie S., NH

Mirana is the kind of character I always dreamed I would read about when I was a teen and young adult-and now. I love her spirit and determination, and how strong she is. ... The descriptions are so vivid ... I really feel her world is real! - Jenny Givner, Acapella Book Cover Design, Los Angeles, CA

C.K. Donnelly's TRINE RISING has everything you could ask for in a fantasy series: an immersive world, incredible characters to root for, a plot filled with suspense and mystery, and a wonderful magic system. - Jonah Paul Soucy, Pittsburgh PA

TRINE RISING is a deeply satisfying book. As a reader new to fantasy, I was transported at once into a world that is unfamiliar yet completely real. Donnelly did a masterful job of inviting me directly into the minds and the hearts of the characters. - Angela H., Phoenix, AZ
