The Flight and Flame Trilogy

Pixies and spriggans war in this epic fantasy tale for lovers of fairies and fae. Includes the complete Flight and Flame Trilogy by R. J. Anderson in one ebook volume. Book 1: SwiftTo save her people, a wingless girl must learn to fly. As a piskey girl born without wings and raised underground, Ivy yearns for flight almost as much as she misses her long-lost mother. But the world outside the Delve is full of danger, and her dreams seem hopeless until she meets a mysterious faery who makes her an enticing offer: If Ivy helps him escape the Delve's dungeon, he'll teach her how to fly.
Freeing Richard could cost Ivy her reputation, perhaps even her life. But when her fellow piskeys start to disappear and her beloved little sister goes missing, Ivy has no choice but to take the risk. Deadly threats and shocking revelations await Ivy as she ventures into a strange new world, uncovers long-buried secrets about her family's past, and finds that no one-not even herself-is entirely what they seem.
Book 2: NomadCast into exile, she must return to free her people. Banished from her underground home by Betony, the queen of the Cornish piskeys, young Ivy sets out to forge a new life for herself in the world above. But a deadly threat lingers in the mine, and Ivy cannot bear to see her people suffer while Betony refuses to believe. Somehow she must convince the queen to let them go. Her mission only becomes more complicated when Ivy starts to dream of the ancient battles between her ancestors and the spriggan folk.
Who is the strange boy in her visions? Could her glimpses of his past help Ivy find a new home for her fellow piskeys?To find the answers, Ivy must outfly vicious predators, outwit cunning enemies, and overcome her own greatest fears. And when evil threatens the people Ivy loves best, it will take all her courage, faith, and determination to save them. Book 3: TorchHow do you fight fire without fire?When a freak storm uncovers the entrance to a mysterious underground chamber, Ivy and Martin expect to find treasure.
But what they discover is even more valuable: a barrow full of sleeping spriggans, magically preserved for centuries. With the vengeful piskey queen Betony determined to capture Ivy and her followers, the secret hideaway could be key to both their peoples' survival. But the piskeys and spriggans are ancient enemies, and when Ivy tries to make peace her own followers threaten to turn against her. Plagued by treachery, betrayal and desertion on every side, Ivy must find a way to unite the magical folk of Cornwall-or doom herself, Martin and everyone she loves to death at Betony's hand.
Yet without the legendary fire-wielding power that marks a true piskey queen, can Ivy convince her people to believe?
