In TURNED (Book #1 of the Vampire Journals), 18 year old Caitlin Paine finds herself uprooted from her nice suburb and forced to attend a dangerous New York City high school when her Mom moves again. The one ray of light in her new surroundings is Jonah, a new classmate who takes an instant liking to her.

But before their romance can blossom, Caitlin suddenly finds herself changing. She is overcome by a superhuman strength, a sensitivity to light, a desire to feed--by feelings she does not understand. She seeks answers to what’s happening to her, and her cravings lead her to the wrong place at the wrong time. Her eyes are opened to a hidden world, right beneath her feet, thriving underground in New York City. She finds herself caught between two dangerous covens, right in the middle of a vampire war.

It is at this moment that Caitlin meets Caleb, a mysterious and powerful vampire who rescues her from the dark forces. He needs her to help lead him to the legendary lost artifact. And she needs him for answers, and for protection. Together, they will need to answer one crucial question: who was her real father?

But Caitlin finds herself caught between two men as something else arises between them: a forbidden love. A love between the races that will risk both of their lives, and will force them to decide whether to risk it all for each other…

Caitlin and Caleb embark together on their quest to find the one object that can stop the imminent vampire and human war: the lost sword. An object of vampire lore, there is grave doubt over whether it even exists.
If there is any hope of finding it, they must first trace Caitlin’s ancestry. Is she really the One? Their search begins with finding Caitlin’s father. Who was he? Why did he abandon her? As the search broadens, they are shocked by what they discover about who she really is.
But they are not the only ones searching for the legendary sword. The Blacktide Coven wants it, too, and they are close on Caitlin and Caleb’s trail. Worse, Caitlin’s little brother, Sam, remains obsessed with finding his Dad. But Sam soon finds himself in way over his head, smack in the middle of a vampire war. Will he jeopardize their search?
Caitlin and Caleb’s journey takes them on a whirlwind of historic locations – from the Hudson Valley, to Salem, to the heart of historic Boston – the very spot where witches were once hung on the hill of Boston Common. Why are these locations so important to the vampire race? And what do they have to do with Caitlin’s ancestry, and with who she’s becoming?
But they may not even make it. Caitlin and Caleb’s love for each other is blossoming. And their forbidden romance may just destroy everything they’ve set out to achieve…

In BETROTHED (Book #6 in the Vampire Journals), Caitlin and Caleb find themselves, once again, back in time – this time, in the London of 1599.
London in 1599 is a wild place, filled with paradoxes: while on the one hand it is an incredibly enlightened, sophisticated time, breeding playwrights like Shakespeare, on the other, it is also barbaric and cruel, with daily public executions, torture, and heads of prisoners impaled on spikes. It is also a time of superstition and grave public danger, with a lack of sanitation, and the Bubonic Plague spreading in the streets, carried by rats.
In this environment Caitlin and Caleb land, on the search for her father, for the third key, for the mythical shield that can save humankind. Their mission takes them through a whirlwind of London’s most amazing medieval architecture, through the British countryside’s most breathtaking castles. It takes them back into the heart of London, where they just might meet Shakespeare himself, and see one of his plays live. It brings them to a little girl, Scarlet, who just might become their daughter. And all the while, Caitlin’s love for Caleb deepens, as finally they are together – and as Caleb might just finally find the perfect time, and place, to propose to her.
Sam and Polly have traveled back, too, and as they find themselves stuck together on their own journey, their relationship deepens, as they each, despite themselves, can’t help feeling more deeply for each other.
But all is not well. Kyle has come back, too, as has his evil sidekick, Sergei, and they are both intent on destroying everything good in Caitlin’s life. It will be a race to the finish, as Caitlin is forced to make some of the hardest decisions of her life if she is to save everyone who is dear to her, save her relationship with Caleb – and try to make it out alive.

From #1 Bestselling author Morgan Rice comes a sweeping new fantasy series.
17 year old Ceres, a beautiful, poor girl in the Empire city of Delos, lives the harsh and unforgiving life of a commoner. By day she delivers her father’s forged weapons to the palace training grounds, and by night she secretly trains with them, yearning to be a warrior in a land where girls are forbidden to fight. With her pending sale to slavehood, she is desperate.
18 year old Prince Thanos despises everything his royal family stands for. He abhors their harsh treatment of the masses, especially the brutal competition—The Killings—that lies at the heart of the city.

When Ceres stuns the court with her hidden powers, she finds herself wrongfully imprisoned, doomed to an even worse life than she could imagine.

And that sometimes, being chosen is the worst that can happen.

In A THRONE FOR SISTERS (Book one), Sophia, 17, and her younger sister Kate, 15, are desperate to leave their horrific orphanage. Orphans, unwanted and unloved, they nonetheless dream of coming of age elsewhere, of finding a better life, even if that means living on the streets of the brutal city of Ashton.
Sophia and Kate, also best friends, have each other’s backs—and yet they want different things from life. Sophia, a romantic, more elegant, dreams of entering court and finding a noble to fall in love with. Kate, a fighter, dreams of mastering the sword, of battling dragons, and becoming a warrior. They are both united, though, by their secret, paranormal power to read other’s minds, their only saving grace in a world that seems bent to destroy them.
As they each embark on a quest and adventure their own ways, they struggle to survive. Faced with choices neither can imagine, their choices may propel them to the highest power—or plunge them to the lowest depths.

A MARCH OF KINGS takes us one step further on Thor’s epic journey into manhood, as he begins to realize more about who he is, what his powers are, as he embarks to become a warrior.
After he escapes from the dungeon, Thor is horrified to learn of another assassination attempt on King MacGil. When MacGil dies, the kingdom is set into turmoil. As everyone vies for the throne, King’s Court is more rife than ever with its family dramas, power struggles, ambitions, jealousy, violence, and betrayal. An heir must be chosen from among the children, and the ancient Destiny Sword, the source of all their power, will have a chance to be wielded by someone new. But all this might be upended: the murder weapon is recovered, and the noose tightens on finding the assassin. Simultaneously, the MacGils face a new threat by the McClouds, who are set to attack again from within the Ring.
Thor fights to win back Gwendolyn’s love, but there may not be time: he is told to pack up, to prepare with his brothers in arms for The Hundred, a hundred grueling days of hell that all Legion members must survive. The Legion will have to cross the Canyon, beyond the protection of the Ring, into the Wilds, and set sail across the Tartuvian Sea for the Isle of Mist, said to be patrolled by a dragon, for their initiation into manhood.
Will they make it back? Will the Ring survive in their absence? And will Thor finally learn the secret of his destiny?
With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, A MARCH OF KINGS is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and dragons, of intrigue and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition, and betrayal. It is a tale of honor and courage, of fate and destiny, of sorcery. It is a fantasy that brings us into a world we will never forget, and which will appeal to all ages and genders.

In A CRY OF HONOR (Book #4 in the Sorcerer's Ring), Thor has returned from The Hundred as a hardened warrior, and now he must learn what it means to battle for his homeland, to battle for life and death. The McClouds have raided deep into MacGil territory—deeper than ever before in the history of the Ring—and as Thor rides into an ambush, it will fall on his head to fend off the attack and save King’s Court.

Godfrey has been poisoned by his brother by a very rare and potent poison, and his fate lies in Gwendolyn’s hands, as she does whatever she can to save her brother from death.

Gareth has fallen deeper into a state of paranoia and discontent, hiring his own tribe of savages as a personal fighting force and giving them Silver Hall—ousting The Silver and causing a rift in King’s Court that threatens to blow up into a civil war. He also schemes to have the fierce Nevaruns take Gwendolyn away, selling her off in marriage without her consent.

Thor’s friendships deepen, as they journey to new places, face unexpected monsters and fight side by side in unimaginable battle. Thor journeys to his hometown and, in an epic confrontation with his father, he learns a great secret of his past, of who he is, who his mother is—and of his destiny. With the most advanced training he’s ever received from Argon, he begins to tap powers he didn’t know he had, becoming more powerful each day. As his relationship with Gwen deepens, he returns to King’s Court in the hopes of proposing to her—but it may already be too late.

Andronicus, armed with an informer, leads his million-man Empire army to once again attempt to breach the Canyon and crush the Ring.

And just as things seem like they can’t get any worse at King’s Court, the story ends with a shocking twist.

Will Godfrey survive? Will Gareth be ousted? Will King’s Court split in two? Will the Empire invade? Will Gwendolyn end up with Thor? And will Thor finally learn the secret of his destiny?

With its sophisticated world-building and characterization, A CRY OF HONOR is an epic tale of friends and lovers, of rivals and suitors, of knights and dragons, of intrigues and political machinations, of coming of age, of broken hearts, of deception, ambition and betrayal.

K nig MacGil muss sich unter seinen Kindern f r einen Nachfolger entscheiden, und das uralte Schicksalsschwert, die Quelle all ihrer Macht, wartet weiterhin unber hrt auf die Ankunft des Auserw hlten. Thorgrin kommt als Au enseiter an und k mpft darum, akzeptiert zu werden und zur Legion des K nigs zu geh ren.
Thorgrin entdeckt, dass er mysteri se Kr fte besitzt, die er nicht versteht; dass er eine besondere Gabe hat, und ein besonderes Schicksal. Er verliebt sich aussichtslos in die Tochter des K nigs, und w hrend ihre verbotene Romanze erbl ht, muss er erfahren, dass er m chtige Rivalen hat. W hrend er sich bem ht, seine Kr fte zu begreifen, nimmt ihn der Zauberer des K nigs unter die Fittiche und erz hlt ihm von seiner Mutter, die er nie kannte, in einem fernen Land hinter dem Canyon, das sogar weit hinter dem Land der Drachen liegt.
Bevor Thorgrin ausziehen und Krieger werden kann, wie es sein Herzenswunsch ist, muss er seine Ausbildung abschlie en. Doch dies k nnte ein vorschnelles Ende finden, als er sich im Mittelpunkt k niglicher Intrigen und Gegenintrigen wiederfindet, die seine Liebe bedrohen und ihn zerst ren k nnten–und mit ihm das gesamte K nigreich.

#1 På topplistan!
En ny, fantastisk fantasyserie från bästsäljarförfattaren Morgan Rice! HJÄLTARS VÄG (första delen av TROLLKARLENS RING) är den storslagna berättelsen om en alldeles särskild pojke, en fjortonåring från en liten by i utkanten av Ringens kungarike. Yngst av fyra syskon, minst omtyckt av sin far och avskydd av sina tre bröder har Thorgrin en känsla av att han är annorlunda. Han drömmer om att en dag bli en stor krigare, om att bli en av kungens män och skydda Ringen från de vilda horder av fiender som lever på den andra sidan Klyftan. När han väl har åldern inne, men förbjuds av sin far att ens försöka bli uttagen till kungens legion så vägrar han att ge upp: han ger sig av på egen hand, fast besluten att ta sig till Kungsgård för att bli tagen på allvar.
Men Kungsgård är en plats full av familjeintriger, maktkamp, ambitioner, avund, våld och svek. Kung MacGil måste välja ett av sina barn till arvinge, och det uråldriga Ödessvärdet – källan till all makt – ligger fortfarande orört, i väntan på att den utvalde skall komma. Thorgrin är en främling och kämpar för att bli accepterad och tas in i Legionen.
Thorgrin inser att han har märkliga krafter som han inte ens själv kan förstå, att han har en särskild gåva och ett särskilt öde. Mot alla odds förälskar han sig i kungens dotter, och fastän deras förbjudna kärlek växer så upptäcker han att han har mäktiga rivaler. När han kämpar för att förstå sina krafter tas han i beskydd av kungens trollkarl, som berättar om den mor han aldrig träffat, i ett land långt i fjärran, bortom Klyftan och till och med bortom drakarnas land.
Innan Thorgrin kan ge sig ut i världen för att bli den krigare han önskar måste han först avsluta sin träning. Men allt kan ta slut redan innan det börjat eftersom han kastas rakt in i kungahusets intriger och ränker som hotar att ta ifrån honom hans kärlek och förgöra honom – och hela kungariket.
HJÄLTARS VÄG erbjuder ett sofistikerat världsbygge och spännande karaktärer. Det är en storslagen berättelse om vänner och älskande, rivaler och friare, riddare och drakar, intriger, politiska ränker, om att bli vuxen och brustna hjärtan, ambitioner och svek. Det är en berättelse om mod, om att finna sitt öde och om trolldom. Det är fantasy som för läsaren till en helt oförglömlig värld och som tilltalar alla åldrar och kön. Boken är 80000 ord.
”Eldfängd fantasy med en berättelse full av intriger och mysterier. Hjältars väg handlar i grunden om kampen för att växa i mod och leva för erfarenhet, personlig mognad och perfektion… För de som är på jakt efter ett rejält fantasyäventyr så levererar berättelsens huvudpersoner, berättargrepp och action en fartfylld räcka händelser som beskriver Thors utveckling från drömsk pojke till ung vuxen i kamp mot omöjliga odds för sin överlevnad… Och det här är bara början i vad som lovar att bli en helt storslagen serie för unga vuxna.”
