After months of conflict and opposition, Abramm Kalladorne has finally stepped into his destiny as king of Kiriath--only to find himself with more problems than ever. The Mataio remains antagonistic, the failed rebellion’s supporters have slipped through his grasp to plot anew, bad luck plagues his every attempt to build Kiriath’s defenses...and that's just the beginning.

 

As the forces of the Black Moon advance toward Kiriathan shores, Abramm agrees to a desperately needed alliance-by-marriage with neighboring Chesedh. But with the hour for his union approaching, he is horrified to discover that he has become dangerously attracted to his fiancée’s younger sister, the headstrong Lady Madeleine.Worse, he learns his attraction is reciprocated--just the sort of situation his enemies can use to destroy everything he’s trying to accomplish. And Eidon just might let them succeed.

 

Treachery and faithfulness, guilt and forgiveness, the joy of desires fulfilled and the pain of tragic loss all weave the tapestry of one man’s destiny realized--where mind-boggling blessings come wrapped in a mantle of suffering that will test Abramm’s faith to the limit and challenge everything he thinks he knows about himself and the one who owns his soul.

 

 

"Like Narnia, Middle-Earth, or Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry, this world is rich and detailed, the tales are complex and thrilling, and the characters full-blooded, flawed, and heroic."-- Infuzemag.com

 

 

"Shadow Over Kiriath is a masterful work, full of Karen's now-trademark blend of romance, intrigue, and adventure. This is also her deepest spiritually; she so perfectly captures the proving of true faith in the fires of disappointment and loss... left me awash in the wonder of God's grace and unfailing love.”  -- Shannon McNear, Christian-fandom.org

 

 

"The third epic tale in the award winning LEGENDS OF THE GUARDIAN KING saga, Shadow Over Kiriath, is a fantastic allegorical fantasy ... excellent as a stand alone, but is incredible when read back to back to back with its predecessors." --Midwest Book Review, January
