The cover of Hidden Root
Book One of the Injured Tapestry Trilogy
For Brave Keely, she’s helping her privileged family.
For Mage Roc, he’s serving those that accepted him as an exiled orphan.
These two foreigners make up half of The King’s Dagger, a group of four called upon to precisely cut at problems that cannot be solved by soldiers or scribes. The issue will be delicate, their task some of the last orders King Frankelin Hearth Guard will give. The Dagger is ready to find the plant that will extend what little time the King has left, their grief and worry a secret to the Everwarm Kingdom.
As they travel through the marshes to complete their tasks, they discover something more insidious. Not only are outsiders sabotaging their efforts, but they are also in pursuit of an otherworldly force, a malicious smoke that afflicts flora and fauna. It operates unlike any magic they know and threatens to undo any good deed performed for their ailing King.
This is only the beginning to their true purpose. In Hidden Root, the first installment of The Injured Tapestry trilogy, the King’s Dagger set in motion the events that will right what has been wrong with their world for eons.
They’ll fix what destiny couldn’t.

But Sapphy, when is the paperback out?
The paperback for Hidden Root is delayed—multiple issues prevented me from seeing a proof copy of the book in time. I’m glad I waited. We had to make alterations to the map of the Everwarm Kingdom to make it more legible. I will email all newsletter subscribers once the paperback is ready. That should be soon, since the print was approved only a few days ago.
In the meantime, if you’re ready to travel with Roc and Keely as they start their adventures as the King’s Dagger, why wait? Read it today!
