The Green Blade: A YA Fantasy Adventure Novel

Who Can Defeat a Curse Worth Than Death?

Princess Philia Pendragon has returned to the enchanted Isle of Avalon, but her journey comes with a terrible price: a “Curse worse than death”. The Curse spreads like dragon fire through her body, poisoning her cheery temperament and bending all her thoughts towards death. As her parents search for an antidote, Philia encounters an ancient Dragon hellbent on eliminating any possible cure. The Dragon was summoned by the power-hungry Lord Amaranth, who uses the creature to declare war on Avalon.

Will Owain, the Princess’ loyal watchman, refuses to accept Philia’s cruel fate. He’d give up everything to save her, but he fears even his own life would not be enough. Can anyone muster the courage and selflessness to save Philia? Or will saving the Princess destroy not only Will, but their entire beloved kingdom?

THE GREEN BLADE, sequel to Avalon Lost, is the heart and hinge of the Secrets of Avalon trilogy. Its vivid worldbuilding, emotionally charged action scenes, and gritty noble characters will appeal to fans of The Legend of Zelda universe and John Flanagan’s Ranger’s Apprentice series.

The Green Blade.”
– Katelin Cummins, Book Coach and Editor
