Synopsis

*She plunged her blade into his chest, feeling it grind along his ribs...*
Outcast swordfighter, Kyer Halidan, was abandoned in a cornfield at age three. Now, twenty years on, she’s searching for answers: Who left her there? And why?
Kyer doesn’t suffer fools, and when she kills a man in a duel, it changes her life forever.
The duel catches the eye of Valrayker, a legendary hero, who pulls her into his company for a high-stakes mission to save a village. While on the mission, Kyer is stalked and captured by powerful allies of the man she killed, who are determined to learn what she knows—and will stop at nothing to find out.
She’s rescued by an inexplicable magic that raises suspicions among her friends—and fuels her enemies’ wrath even further. And worse—their fear.
As trust crumbles around her and danger closes in, Kyer must defy orders and challenge the very people she swore to follow.
As for her true identity, Valrayker harbours his own suspicions. But he’s keeping those secrets to himself… for now.
Gatekeeper’s Key is an adventure riddled with danger, intrigue, mysterious magic, scheming villains, humour, sword-wielding badassery, and dark consequences.
"Gatekeeper's Key is a dark and luscious truffle everyone will want to savor and beg for more when it's done."
~ Diana Pharaoh Francis - USA Today Bestselling Author of the Path trilogy and the Crosspointe Chronicles.
"Awesome!!! If you’re looking for a compelling fantasy book that feels familiar in terms of genre while still keeping you intrigued and on your toes, look no further. Interesting, quippy, and emotional, this book scratches that fantasy itch perfectly. Do yourself a favor and listen to the audio version. The performance from the narrator (who is also the author) made this experience so special. Dialogue was so engaging, character voice and choices were strong, it was a great time!" ~Billie Wendall Apple books
"Magical from beginning to end!" -Kory P. Amazon reader

WARNING: Start reading on a weekend or clear your schedule for the next few days because you will not be able to put this down!

I'm only a couple of chapters into this, but I love the kick-ass main character. Full review to come later .........more

You will love Kyer, the young heroin of Gatekeeper's Key. She books no nonsense from friends and enemies alike, and this impetuous behaviour is both endearing and dangerous. The writing is beautiful in detail, including settings, character development and action scenes. I love stories with a great s......more

Goodreads review by Matthew

Loved this novel! Strong kickass female protagonist who doesn’t take crap from anyone. Sassy and tough Kyer Halidan is the hero you would never want to meet in battle unless she was on your side. Then stand back and let her do her thing. Krista Wallace’s voice is lovely for audiobooks, I am nervous......more
