Keepers of the Sword Channel (Sword Channel Saga, #1)

A vanished relic. A warparty on a perilous mission. A young warrior with awakening Powers.

Jalinda has trained her whole life to defend her people, but nothing prepares her for the day the ancient Sword Channel—the source of her people's strength—disappears. Her encounter with a powerful creature leaves her with a rare ability: she can detect the Sword Channel’s presence across vast distances, making her the only person capable of tracking the Channel.

Her warparty sets out across hostile lands, where every step reveals deeper secrets, older loyalties, and dangers no training could anticipate. As Jalinda learns to wield her new Powers, she discovers that recovering the Sword Channel may require more than skill—it may demand choices that will shape the future of her people.

To succeed, she must use her intelligence, discipline, and emerging abilities to outwit an enemy who can sense her Power. One mistake could cost her life—and doom the companions sworn to stand beside her.

A sweeping epic of warriors, soul‑bound blade magic, and a heroine who refuses to break. Perfect for readers of Sanderson, Hobb, Gwynne, and military fantasy quests with deep worldbuilding.
