About The Savage War (The Black Phantom Chronicles Book 1):
A young shepherd boy sets out to find his calling and stumbles upon a land at war. Arnacin of Enchantress Island must wrestle with the purpose of honor, and the conflict that ensues when it’s called into question.
Valoretta, princess of Mira, has been chosen to be her father’s successor, but at what cost? Her country is in conflict, conspiracies abound, and the native population has risen against her father, King Miro, and their people.
Everything changes when Arnacin and Valoretta join forces to secure the future of Mira. But will Arnacin’s honor be the greatest victim of The Savage War? And will the Black Phantom be Mira’s doom or salvation?

Author Bio:
Esther Wallace is an award winning author and freelance illustrator.
She started her journey as a homeschooler, telling stories to her younger siblings. Her favorite books and movies are the ones that challenge the reader as well as the protagonists, the tales so driven by character, those heroes and heroines stay with one through all the hardships and joys of life. These, such as Frodo Baggins, Princess Eilonwy of Llyr, Taran Wanderer, and Harry Potter, come off the page, as they should.
Her largest jolts of inspiration come when reading/watching/reenacting history or joking with her large family around the diner table.
