In the land of Tortall a girl called Alanna hides her identity and trains to become a Knight. She succeeds and on the day of her Knighting is revealed as a woman, fights and kills the evil mage Roger, and goes into self-impossed exile till things quiet down. During this time she's adopted by the Bazhir and then seeks out and finds the Dominion Jewel. Bringing the Jewel back to her King she finds Roger returned from the dead and must defeat him all over again. At some point (I forget when) she's made King's Chamption.
Years later a young girl comes out of Galla who is bound by magic to all animals and Immortals. Her arrival is a case of perfect timing as the gates to the Divine Realms have been breached and Immortals loosed on the world. It's suspected that Carthak is behind it but no proof is available. Everything comes to a head at Pirate's Swoop when they defeat 'pirates' who are truly under the flag of Carthak. The girl, Diane, ends up as caretaker of a baby dragon because of the battle. Later she and Numair help uncover and stop the treason of the Lord and Lady of Dunlath. After that they end up in Carthak to sign treaties and heal the Emperor's birds. It ends up with the palace in ruins and the Emperor turned into a Stormwing. After that there's more fighting the former Emperor is eventually killed and the gates to the Divine Realms are sealed but those Immortals that were on the human side of them at solstice are allowed to remain if they wish.
Some years later the first official girl page begins her training. She ends up a critical part in stopping an deranged Gallan mage and power hungry Scanran warlord from overrunning Tortall.
Alanna's daughter ends up over in the Copper Isles and helps both the rightful rulers and the rightful god retake their places.

Now, a 100 years later things seem to have settled down. But have they? Or is this just the calm before yet another storm, the rumblings of which are just now being heard in the distance? And what about these rumours of a new chieftain up in Scanra?
Let's find out......
