Taking Flight
Everyone assumed Sira was going to ace the practical exam; she’s proven she can fly an airship. What she can’t seem to do is make it home. Shot down in the dead of night, she and James Hawk, the frustrating mage assigned to her exam, are stranded in the Bellever forest. Sira doesn’t trust magic, or the mage she’s stranded with, but they’re the only survivors of the attack and it will take both their talents to get back to the city.
Drawing Fire
Sira’s final year at the Academy was supposed to be log her flight hours, keep her head down, and graduate with her friends. But outside the capital, unrest is brewing. The Fae have come out of hiding, villages are burning, and fear is turning people against anyone with unregistered magic. When tragedy strikes the King’s Faire, Sira realizes nowhere is safe, not even Belcester…
Hands down, it's been my favorite read so far this year.
“Kelly Scriven has done something wonderful here [in Taking Flight]. Something magical, rather. With the blending of steampunk fantasy, some actual magic, a little love, and plenty of excitement, she’s written what I can only hope is the beginning of a very long series. It’s a delightful journey from start to finish. Pick it up, and move it to the top of your tbr pile- you’ll be glad you did.”
Chasing Shadows
The shadows of Sira's past have come calling, and her future hangs in the balance.
Bound by a bargain she never should have made, Sira and her brother hunt for a way to sever her family from the Fae they once called uncle. But Gwideon doesn't let go of what's his without a fight. Every step closer to answers comes at a cost. And if Sira won't choose what to give up, Gwideon will choose for her.
James is desperate to get back to magic after the disaster at the gala, but the Tripower needs him more than ever. Another alliance. Another meeting only he can take. Until one turns deadly, and it's no longer just the nation's future on the line—it's his own life.
Belcester is a powder keg just waiting for a spark. When shadows and politics collide, the cost of freedom may be more than either of them is willing to pay.
