A ruler is betrayed and his daughter must flee or die... Teenage Zastra is a big disappointment to her father, Leodra, ruler of Golmeira, because she hasn't got what it takes to become a mindweaver. Golmeira relies on its mindweavers, men and women who can manipulate the thoughts of others, to subdue its enemies. Zastra is determined to prove herself worthy of her father’s respect, but her chance comes in an unexpected manner. In the middle of the night, Zastra is roused to discover that her father has been betrayed. Golmer Castle is swarming with soldiers, and the skies above it filled with monstrous flying migaradons, bred only to kill and destroy. Forced to flee, Zastra must rely on her wits and the help of strangers as she tries to outrun the powerful forces set upon her trail. ‘Realm of Mindweavers is a great read, exciting, well-crafted and full of powerful well-realised characters.’ Brian Keaney, author of The Magical Detectives Series.

Forced into exile, Zastra seeks revenge against those who murdered her parents Ever since he murdered his brother and seized power, Grand Marl Thorlberd has ruled Golmeira with an iron grip. Only a small band of rebels dare to oppose him. His niece, Zastra, forced into hiding in the remote Border Mountains, has been raising her young brother safely away from their uncle’s reach, but when Thorlberd moves to conquer the neighbouring land of Sendor, their quiet refuge is soon crawling with savage Kyrginite soldiers and inquisitive mindweavers. Zastra must act quickly to keep her brother safe.

An old adversary resurfaces. She has a single goal - to find Zastra and destroy her. With Golmeira and Sendor subdued, Grand Marl Thorlberd seeks to blood his son Rastran with new conquests. Anyone who questions their unforgiving rule is likely to disappear, or turn up dead. Even thoughts are policed by Thorlberd’s coterie of powerful mindweavers. Thorlberd’s niece Zastra leads a growing band of rebels who continue to oppose his brutal regime. Unaware that an old adversary is on her trail, Zastra journeys deep into Thorlberd’s territory in search of her younger brother and sister. Desperate to reunite her family, she is faced with a tough choice. Dare she enter Golmer Castle itself and risk coming face to face with demons from her past?

In a land where mindweavers can steal the thoughts of the unwary, nothing stays hidden forever It’s been years since Zastra’s uncle murdered her parents and seized control of Golmeira. Now he has turned his brutal war machine against their neighbours and nowhere is safe.

As the rebels argue among themselves, Thorlberd advances a deadly scheme to deal with his problematic niece once and for all.
