Synopsis
The adventures of Naruihm's warrior-queen and England's privateer captain begin once again in Legacy of Morevi, the highly-anticipated sequel to the award-nominated debut work of Tee Morris and Lisa Lee.
Life in Morevi is hardly a "happily ever after" for privateer captain Rafe Rafton. As he deals with the animosity from the Ladies of the Blood and from his own daughter, Ashtari, his only ally is Morevi’s First Queen, Askana Moldarin. But soon, the peace they find with each other is shattered in a single night. Now, Morevi faces a threat far greater than that of political opponents or frontier rivals. As their realm stands on the brink of a war they cannot win, Askana and Rafe must risk another Riftcrossing while sending their daughter, the future Second Queen of Morevi, into hiding.

December 17, 2005: Off the coast of Ireland, Captain Rafe Rafton sails the Defiant through 'The Graveyard of Lost Ships' that he learns is a space-time continuum they end up in the Kingdom of Morevi where he helps the ruthless First Queen Askana Moldarin against her enemies from within and from neighboring Eyrie. He succeeds, saving her life and her kingdom, and becomes consort to the Queen (see MOREVI: THE CHRONICLES OF RAFE AND ASKANA). --- Rafe and Askana initially assume happily ever after as he is a hero to her people and to her. However, as he struggles to adapt to life in Morevi, he finds the influential Ladies of the Blood want him to go home somehow they persuade his daughter Ahstari, the Second Queen, to join their cause of removing the foreign usurper. However, before he can consider what to do about his child turning against him, Rafe must lead a battle that he knows his side cannot win against the dangerous Southern Wood creatures and the deadly magic of Morevi?s former allies the Elves of Arathelle. One mistake and Rafe will welcome death as a better outcome for him. --- This second tale contains all the exhilarating thrills and magical chills that made the first Morevi entry terrific. The superb story line hooks the audience as the adventures begin early and never slows down. Rafe, like the true champion he is, feels prepared for epic hostilities on the mundane and mystical planes, but also fears he lost his daughter to the pure blood movement that want him deported. His relationship with the First Queen is that of love, but that might not prove enough, that is if he survives the upcoming war. This is a great character driven action-packed fantasy. --- Harriet Klausner

October 05, 2005: Legacy is a wonerfully written piece of fiction of which I cannot wait to see what happens in book 2. I like this introduction of the familial element and the different facets of it in unfolding the story, both on the smaller and larger struggles within the plot. Talk about a family feud of colossal proportions! Tee has presented something to the reader to which they can relate to on either the semi- or sub- conscious level. Who doesn't have or know someone who has a skeleton in the family closet? That one troublesome family member who starts trouble and makes it harder to solve the smaller family crisises in comparrison to the boiling culdron they stir. This story, while woven with action, sorcery, thrills, and even a hint of suspence, is so smoothly written that it pulls the reader in by forming this almost unacknowledged emotional connection. I din't want to put it down!
