Updated: Sep 13, 2022

The Altira Series is an epic fantasy about a mage who struggles to balance her ability to give life with the desire to kill in a land where magic is undesired. The first book of the series will be released in 2023.


5310 Publishing is thrilled to announce that Joyce Gee is joining our family of authors with a new high/epic fantasy series. With six books, The Altira Series is composed by Magic of Lies, Blood of Husks, Grave of Dandelions, Shadows of Life, Game of Gods, and Fires of Unmaking.


About The Altira Series: Princess Eirian Altira has always walked on a knife’s edge with flowers chasing her footsteps. Born with magic, she struggles to balance her ability to give life with the desire to kill. Raised by mages, the day comes when she must return home to a kingdom she left as a child, and a father she has not seen in 20 years. Surrounded by a strange court with expectations she was not prepared for, Eirian hides her magic until she’s faced with the choice between becoming queen or returning to the mages.


With secrets around every corner and war with a neighboring kingdom on the horizon, Eirian discovers her power means more than she realized. As does her long-standing friendship with the crown prince of the elven nation they’ve been allied with for generations. But the whispers in her mind and the rumors spreading through her court threaten everything Eirian holds dear, and she will do anything to protect the ones she loves. With assassination attempts and rumors of war, Eirian proves to those around her that she is not one to hide from confrontation. Even when it risks her life.
