Overview

SOME LEGENDS ARE BORN

OTHERS ARE MADE

FEW ARE BOTH

Seventeen-year-old Ripley is the daughter of legendary parents. In a repressive medieval patriarchal society, she unwittingly becomes a lightning rod for change as she strives to fulfill her controversial ambition to become Valor's first female soldier.

"She was a feisty, stubborn, impetuous, exasperating, infuriating thorn in Takeshi's side."

"What she did was honorable. It was also dishonorable. Only Ripley could accomplish both at the same time."

Forces of good and evil collide as a tempest threatens to engulf her and destroy everything she holds dear.

"Ripley of Valor is a thoroughly engaging novel."

"A shining example of the power of rich and successful subplots."

"An excellent choice for young adult readers."

- Chanticleer Editorial Services

About the Author

I'm Thoren Syndergaard, a Canadian young-adults medieval fiction author. I have a passion for the Middle Ages, gender equality, and strong, female, character-driven, coming-of-age stories. My books are informative, humorous in parts, full of twists, and hold-onto-your-seat excitement. Expect heroic battles, devious villains, action-packed adventure, love, loyalty, deception, intrigue, subterfuge, and betrayal. Raised on a diet of medieval comics, novels, and movies, I knew at a young age that I wanted to share my passion with others. As an elementary school educator, my favorite subject to teach was life during the medieval era. I invited authors to the school library, bused my students to the Medieval Times dinner and tournament, visited museums, constructed catapults, and brought in falconry and weapons experts. I did everything humanly possible to bring history alive in my classroom.
