Hidden Heritage

Stian is an excellent hunter and tracker, but regular village life is suddenly disrupted when the Guardians, who protect the entire kingdom, stop in to ask for his assistance. Both Stian and his fiancée, the prettiest and nicest girl in the village, understand that by helping the Guardians they could get the much-coveted support for their relationship that they've been after. But a simple tracking and hunting trip turns out to be much longer, and much more complicated than Stian anticipated. In order to be successful, he embarks on a journey of self-discovery in the wilderness that turns into the adventure of a lifetime. Along the way, he'll discover that things aren't always what they seem at first, and some childhood fairy tales weren't fairy tales at all.... The Guardians is book one of The Hidden Heritage, a series about courage, betrayal and love in a magical world of elves and trolls.

After taking the advice of a former Guardian and abandoning his home, Stian must rebuild his life, and in the process, learn a lot more about the world around him.... Stian's first meeting with the Elves in their valley didn't quite go as he had hoped. While healing from his wounds, he's tasked with trying to earn their trust, which, because of past occurrences, won't be easy. In order to win them over, he'll need to learn a whole lot more about them - and about magic. However, Stian is facing a much more serious threat...and he'll need a lot more than magic to be able to respond to this newfound danger. He'll need the support of allies. The Scholars is book two of The Hidden Heritage, a series about courage, betrayal, and love in a magical world of elves and trolls.
