Novels by Lisa Saul

OUT NOW on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited. Ebook and Paperback.    Get ready for a fantasy novel unlike anything you’ve ever read… “My name is Irikana, and I was born into wealth and privilege – born a princess of the kingdom of Everlast – but I was forged by the fires of blood and trauma. “Sometimes life changes us so heartbeat fast, we are sent spinning from our course into what seems an almost nightmare state of existence. There were four such moments in my childhood. ...  “And so, though it pains me to recall so much of what happened, still I will record all that has taken place. Although it will seem at first the tale of someone self-absorbed, a tale of individual exploits, I cannot escape how integral a part I have played in the history of all. Indeed, who we are now, and who we will be in the future, is a dark story – and that story begins with me ...” One young girl, a mere princess, is caught up in the politics and alliances that have shaped her world. Though she is to be simply a future bride, a political tool for more alliances, fate changes the woman Irikana of Everlast is supposed to become. Striving to win her place in a man’s world, Irikana grows to become a master player of the politics that underpin their entire society. A master player, yes, but only of the game she and everyone else thinks is being played. Not everything is as it seems, and too many sinister secrets lie dormant in the shadowy places of their world. And at the very heart of their land, sleeping forces are about to awaken and change the rules for all.   Part historical drama, part political thriller, part mind-bending fantasy, Shadowland is a book that defies its genre, daring the reader to go on a journey into the shadowiest recesses of reality.

The second and final book in the Bloodline series. Get ready for the stunning, startling and entirely unforgettable conclusion to Bloodline: Alliance. The enemy just lost. Or did he? After a thousand years of interracial hatred and bloodshed, the races of the Lightlands finally unite in battle against their ancient foe. Together, they drive the enemy back into the Wastelands - only to owe the price of betrayal. For their treachery, the enemy merely asks for the body of the Korzekan High One, and one man's mind to do with as he wishes. It is an inexplicable bargain, and the Lightlanders can only wait to see what the enemy will do. As the thorns begin to tangle through the short-lived peace, Shenna finds herself tormented by her choice to forgive, and is torn between bonds of friendship and the acceptance of her people. With each new decision to do what is right, Shenna's world tears further apart, for the enemy's web is being spun around her. And he alone knows that it will be her choices that will usher in a Dark Time unlike any that has gone before. Bloodline is a fantasy series that is gripping, deeply moving and profound. It is a story, a people and a world that will stay with you long after the last page is read.

Get ready for the explosive and shocking conclusion to Sacrifice. The secrets and schemes of Sacrifice were just the beginning. In this unforgettable conclusion to Sacrifice, a year has passed without any hope of peace. Emme tries desperately to adjust to her new home and new role, yet Kildes rages against the barbarian in its midst. Riots and protests have broken out across the country. They smash everything Emme tries to do to help the country to heal. Halder, bearing a load of secrets he will not share, has vanished into the city without word. Dusty and Lydia are often seen whispering fearfully in dim corners. Kye has become strangely aloof, unwilling to give an explanation to Emme for his coldness. And the leaders of Kildes search for a reason for Emme to go into exile, a reason they have just found. The shadow of Jaimis still stretches out across the land. Dark secrets of Jaimis' treachery are slowly being uncovered, the full extent of the plot only just being realised. And amidst all the upheaval, even darker clouds are gathering over the future of all, for within Emme's courage, sacrifice and loss, lies the dividing line between destruction and redemption, and an opening for the most evil act man has ever known. Redemption is the vivid, unforgettable and stirring sequel to Sacrifice. Redemption continues and opens up the story of Sacrifice in ways that will leave you breathless. Whatever you already know, it is only the beginning. You will fall in love with the series and the characters of Sacrifice.
