My name is Luis, and I’m the black sheep of the family.

Born the scion of a household of magistrates and physicians, I was groomed from a young age to meet those expectations. I threw the chain of office away and became a bard instead.

I’ve since traveled the breadth of my homeland, picking up tales here and there. I’ve dined with aldermen and drank firewater with vagabonds; I’ve sung moonlit serenades to hussies and taken the daughters of wealthy merchants to grand balls. I’ve joined secret orders, learning their lore and passphrases; I’ve locked arms with tree-huggers and danced with them under the full moon.

But two things sing to my soul like nothing else. One, the roll of the dice, be it on the wood of the tabletop or within the shards of

I've polled my readers on the matter, and they tend to agree. It adds context to some events in Daughter, but it is not needed to understand the plot.

I also like to be more experimental with novellas and short stories, so they don't necessarily represent the tone and style of the main series.(less)

Hello! There are several series in Legends of Elessia, so any of the Book 1's is a good place to start. That said, my recommended order is:

1. The Daughter of The Ice (Book 1 of Age of Rekindling)
1a. The Rose & The Knight / Blades of The Ice (if you'd like added backstory for the characters in book 1)
2. The Champion of The Ice
3. Sword of The Elves (Book 1 of Lost Elven Realms)
4. The Assassin of The Ice
5. A Silvery Moon (Book 1 of Shadows Over Garm)
5a. Flight of the Necromancer (If you'd like added backstory for characters I shan't spoil)
6. Mask of the Eternal Moon
7. A Sundered Moon (Conclusion to Shadows Over Garm)
8. The Shadow of The Ice (coming September 2024)
9. The Dragon of The Ice (ETA December 2024/ January 2025 -- Conclusion of Age of Rekindling)
10. The Hunt for the Shadow Dragon (ETA April - July 2025)

The short story "The Blade in the Blizzard" is set many years after all the current series, so it's more of a taste of things to come, and you can read it any time.

Hope this helps!(less)
