By the Horse’s Wings: A Coming of Age Epic Fantasy Magical Adventure (Wings of Destiny series Book 1)

In a world where magic is both feared and revered, meet Zia, a young woman with a secret even she doesn’t know: she possesses suppressed extraordinary magical abilities and an uncanny connection to animals.

The rebel army sweeps through their farm while Zia is away in the village, killing her father and kidnapping her two brothers and five-year-old sister, a Favored One. Zia is desperate to rescue Lily from the magic-wielding Scribes and liberate her younger brothers from the marauding army.

With only farming skills and rudimentary sword training, Zia must find a way to save her siblings. She meets Keniv, a sword master, in the next town who seeks his own lost sister, so they team up to fight the rebels. They wish they had a fabled winged horse to help them, but they set out with what they do have: courage, determination, a menagerie of different animals and two swords.

Can they stay out of the clutches of the rebel army to save Lily from an unclean future, find Keniv’s sister, and keep Zia’s brothers from being child soldiers?

With determination and desperation as their main fuel, they face overwhelming odds against saving their families but whether or not they succeed, they must try.

If you’re looking for your next incredible coming of age epic fantasy, this book has you covered! Featuring winged horses, hidden magical powers, and sword and sorcery, you’ll enjoy this fantasy adventure as you ride along with Zia and her gang to try to save the world.
