Eltava

By Nyki Blatchley
Eltava by Nyki Blatchley digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A swordswoman with a love of wandering, Eltava lives a nomadic life in a world of island kingdoms and mainland empires, sometimes on her own, sometimes with her immortal companion, known as the Traveller. These eleven stories chronicle her life and adventures from an adventure-obsessed 14-year-old to an 84-year-old who still has a move or two up her sleeve.


From acting as bodyguard for princesses to defending peaceful communities from aggression, Eltava battles bandits and tyrants, demons and unearthly creatures. But her greatest battle is with herself, as she becomes more aware that she's growing old, while her companion doesn't age. A search for eternal life ultimately teaches her that life itself is a victory, however long or short-and Eltava's going to enjoy every minute of hers.
