About This Book
The Warrior's Curse, the third installment in The Traitor's Game series, plunges readers back into the high-stakes battle for Antora. Protagonists Kestra and Simon are forcibly separated, each facing their own daunting challenges. Kestra finds herself a prisoner in the All Spirits Forest, where she must harness her burgeoning magical abilities to restore the land. Meanwhile, Simon has been made king of the Halderians, but his reign is fraught with peril as he's surrounded by advisors whose loyalty is questionable, and his connection to Kestra of the despised Dallisor family makes him an object of fear. This young adult fantasy explores themes of leadership, betrayal, the burden of power, and the strength of enduring love amidst political intrigue and epic conflict. It's suitable for readers aged 12-18 who enjoy complex fantasy worlds and character-driven plots.
The battle for control of Antora continues, and Simon and Kestra have been forced apart; Kestra is a prisoner in the cursed All Spirits Forest where Loelle wants her to use her growing power to heal the land and bring it back to life, while Simon has been made king of the Halderians, but is surrounded by men whose loyalty is uncertain and who fear his connection to Kestra of the hated Dallisor family, and the evil Lord Endrick.
