From the author of a delicious feast of dragon novels, The Raven Heir is a riotous romp of an adventure story, replete with old world atmosphere and more mystery, magic and quest-driven action than you can quiver a medieval sword at.

Triplets Cordelia, Rosalind and Giles have lived all their lives in a castle protected by their mother’s magic, surrounded by a wonderfully evoked enchanted forest that was “shot through with trails of sunlight, tracing golden paths of possibility.” These paths of possibility have caught Cordelia, in particular. She longs to be forever free as a bird, not only when she’s permitted to transform into a flying thing, as she’s able to. Though this longing for freedom might come to serve her well, brave Cordelia - and her siblings - face more immediate trouble. The eldest of them is heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Corvenne (a kingdom that’s been unrulable since the Raven Crown was broken), and this comes with such tremendous risk that their mother won’t reveal which of them was born first. As a result, their mother is captured, and the triplets must rescue her.

Driven by a child-centred spirit of solidarity, this clearly-drawn quest is overlaid with a wonderful scheme of magic - a terrific treat for adventure story fans.

The LoveReading LitFest invited Stephanie to the festival to talk about this epic fantasy adventure of warring dynasties, magically powered triplets and a broken crown in need of a rightful heir. You can watch the full event for free here.
