Shadow
Shadow, a light-hearted (and light-fingered) elvan thief, returns to her homeland after several centuries' absence only to find that a great human trade city has grown up next to the forest in which she was born. Now the elves and the humans maintain an uneasy alliance, but when Shadow steals a magical bracelet, she finds herself caught in the middle of a plot that may tear the city -- and the alliance -- apart forever.

Shadow Hunt
What do the Guild of Thieves, the deadliest assassin in Allanmere, a long-vanished mage, a treacherous swamp, and a gem missing from a temple have in common? Shadow, of course. When Shadow is accused of a theft of guild-wrecking proportions, she forms an unlikely alliance with the strange immortal creature known only as Blade to find out who has framed her and the Guild of Thieves for the theft -- and why.

Shadow Dance
A deadly plague is sweeping through Allanmere, brought by a stranger whose race vanished long before the humans of Allanmere, or the elves of the forest, came to the land. Now Shadow must lead that stranger and her best friend Donya into the deadly swamp known as the Dim Reaches in search of a cure for the plague hidden among the traces of a race long gone.

Greendaughter
Long before Shadow was born, the Heartwood was a land of warring clans of elves. When human lord Sharl comes to build a great city near the forest and abducts Chyrie and her mate, Valann, to gain safe conduct through the forest, the elves learn that an even greater enemy is approaching -- an army of barbarians sweeping down from the north. Now the elves must make peace, not only with each other but with the hated humans, to unite against a threat that may destroy the city and the forest together.

Wild Blood
Chyrie's children, Ria and Val, have never known their mother or each other. An elf among humans, Ria dreads her arranged marriage to Lord Sharl's son and longs for the forest and kinfolk she has never known. A half-human among elves who remember humans with hatred and fear, Val resents his mixed blood and waits for the one persion who can understand him -- his sister. Elvan clan leader Rowan, who dreams of uniting the elvan clans for good, and Lord Sharl, determined to rebuild his shattered city, have plans for Ria and Val, never suspecting that Chyrie's children have plans of their own . . .

Dagger's Edge
Donya's daughter is known as "Jaellyn the Unlucky" -- clumsy, seemingly frozen in childhood, and cursed to foul up any magic in her vicinity. But when a series of strange and horrible murders in Allanmere seem to center around the handsome young priest courting her, Jael's talent for mayhem, and the secret surrounding her birth, may save the city.

Dagger's Point
Accompanied ex-acolyte and apprentice thief Tanis, Jael sets out into unknown country to find the father who may hold the key to bringing Jael's mixed bloods into harmony. But even if Jael can cross dangerous and unmapped lands and find a race of people known only in legend, who knows if they can help her, or if they are even willing to try?

Guardian's Key
Dara is a simple serving girl, a disgrace to a family boasting a long line of powerful mages. In love with Lord Cavin IV, Heir to the throne of Caistran, who would never be allowed to marry a serving maid, Dara journeys to the dreaded Crystal Keep to consult the Oracle there. But braving the hostile Guardian and the dangers of the Keep itself, Dara learns that magic is sometimes found in the last place you look . . .

Firewalk
Kayli, daughter of the High Lord of Bregond, is torn from her magical studies in the Temple of Inner Flame to make an arranged marriage with, Randon, Heir to the throne of Agrond, to bring the two warring countries together. But Randon's charming brother Terralt contests Randon's claim to the throne of Agrond, and attempts on Kayli's life make her question all she has been taught, and whether she can trust Terralt, Randon -- or even herself.

Waterdance
It's no wonder that Peri should possess some of the magical talent that her mother , the High Lady Kayli, is known for. However, the young and impetuous Peri is determined to prove that her swordsmanship, not her magic, is her true calling. But when she single-handedly rescues a prisoner from a Sarkond warrior's camp, she finds herself the liberator of a dreaded Sarkond heretic. Now they must depend on each other in order to survive. And face the prophecy they are destined to fulfill -- together . . .

Exile
Neve has spent her life in the shelter of the Crystal Keep, developing her talent for magic and preparing to inherit from her father the Guardianship of this mysterious world. With this post comes the remarkable magic of the Nexus. But control of the Nexus is an awesome and dangerous responsibility, and to prove that she is capable of manipulating its formidable energies, Neve must journey through the outside world to the home of the Keep's creator. Along the way, she will meet a handsome young sailor whose love and guidance are essential to her survival. And, in this brutal foreign land, she must confront the dark side of the Nexus . . . to claim the power that is her birthright.
