In a medieval world of lords and castles, a young woman learns how to overcome all obstacles and join the Knights Valiant. In this expanded edition, Cordelia rejects the Scarlet Knight and his tempting treachery, in exchange for courage on the battlefield and acceptance into the Cordon of Knights. Lord Planya, of the House of Wolves, brings along his battalion of shape-shifting knights who help Cordelia defeat Dosalbo, leader of the renegade tribes. Dosalbo gets his revenge: an explosion from his magic powders injures Cordelia's mentor, Dame Esa. Will she recover? Crossed Swords is the first installment in this chivalrous series of lords and dames at war and play.
