“With The Shadow Girls, Lucienne Diver claims her stake in Epic Fantasy. Great and relatable characters, devious twists, and plenty of action. Consider me a fan!”

David B. Coe/D.B. Jackson, author of the Thieftaker Chronicles.

The Shadow Girls is everything epic fantasy should be — thrilling, powerful, redemptive, and exquisitely written. Lucienne Diver has spun a magical tale and I eagerly await future volumes set in this compelling world!”

R.S. Belcher, author of The Six-Gun Tarot.

“The true magic of Diver’s novel are her characters. The characters of The Shadow Girls will stick with you long after the last page. If you love Fantasy, and you want to read something unique, sweeping, and truly epic, pick up The Shadow Girls. You can thank me later.”

The Whisper Kin by author Lucienne Diver

The Whisper Kin

After the battle of the Dobrens Valley, Bloody Bess declares herself Queen of Jucar, her men pursuing the rebels who’ve survived.

Roha, Cia, Ulan and the others flee with Hostill, the boy contender for her crown, to their rival Frizenze, hoping King Avize will be motivated to get him onto the Jucari throne to restore peace between their kingdoms. They’re separated when Ulan and Ruggerio turn back for the royal city to recover the dangerous Gospel of Gelerte, which has fallen into the queen’s hands (and possibly also to stage an assassination).

The rest are attacked by Bloody Bess’s men and further driven apart. Roha’s horse takes off with nim into the forest, where ni’s stolen away by a man who’s half serpent to a mysterious sanctuary where evil spirits are locked away from the All, the nim who run it perpetually haunted by the spirits.

The others reach the king, but something is afoul in Frizenze. King Avize was nearly killed in the war and his soul is now kept magically locked into his own body. But what is powering the mageri magic? Cia uncovers a deadly conspiracy within their new walls that threatens one of their own. She fears that rather than rescue, she’s brought about the means of their destruction.

About Lucienne

Lucienne Diver is the author of the Vamped and Latter-Day Olympians series, which Long and Short Reviews calls “a clever mix of Janet Evanovich and Rick Riordan”. She also writes young adult suspense – FAULTLINES, THE COUNTDOWN CLUB, and DISAPPEARED, where two teens investigate the disappearance of their mother and the story their father tells about the night she went missing.

On a personal note, Lucienne lives in Florida with her husband, the two cutest dogs in the world, and enough books to some day collapse the second floor of her home into the first. She likes living dangerously.
