The Bandor Child: The Bandor-Mage War

As war looms and the indifference of an empire threatens to crush her, Trisstiphina must find a way to survive. Will her new family be her salvation or the final test of her identity? After Trisstiphina’s small town burns to the ground, claiming all she’s ever known, she finds a new home in the warriorlike Bandorian people. They aren’t your typical barbarians—they’re intelligent, civil, and fair to those allowed into their clan. At first feeling like an outsider, Trisstiphina grows to love her new life and normalcy returns. Life isn’t exactly easy for her though; on her journey she will undergo many trials, choose a new name, and grow closer to her other young packmates as they fight battles both physical and internal. When war breaks out, the Bandorians are at an unfair advantage to the powerful mages of the Empire whose goal is to subjugate all the surrounding peoples and land under its control. Even worse, the mages claim to have a new and powerful secret weapon capable of wiping out their main threat: the entire Bandorian race. If the Bandorians fail to prove their strength, they and their way of life will be crushed by the Empire. Trisstiphina and her pack take up the call to war but how can a group of young warriors possibly succeed against an enemy so strong?
