Elvenblood (The Halfblood Chronicles, #2)

Revised (2026) and illustrated, book two of the iconic Halfblood Chronicle series by two Grandmasters of Speculative Fiction. The long-awaited final (fourth) book in the series is landing on shelves soon. Scroll down for the publishing schedule of the complete four-book series.

In this powerful second installment, the authors continue the beloved series that began with The Elvenbane, expanding the world and deepening its intrigue. The ruthless Elvenlords still rule through overwhelming magic, and even Shana—the legendary Elvenbane foretold to free the oppressed—finds herself nearly powerless against their might. With only a ragtag alliance of half-blood wizards, escaped human slaves, and rebellious dragons, her resistance has achieved little more than a symbolic victory. But hope may lie with the Iron People, a hidden tribe of human nomads who have somehow evaded Elven control for centuries. As tensions within Elven society near the breaking point, Shana's encounter with this ancient tribe may reveal a long-lost secret—one that could bring liberation… or destruction.
