Bardic Voices Books in Order

Young fiddler Rune climbs Skull Hill to prove a boast by playing for its dangerous ghost. She wagers her soul that she can keep the spirit entertained until sunrise, turning musical ambition into a deadly bargain.

Robin, a traveling bard, and Kestrel, an unwilling heir, seek a life together on the road. A plot to silence music draws them toward Skull Hill, where they must recruit its dangerous ghost as an ally.

The Church tightens its control over Alanda, hunting unauthorized magic and treating music as a threat. Driven from communities across the land, the Free Bards must decide whether to flee persecution or resist it.

Nightingale and the birdman T'fyrr investigate why Alanda's High King has withdrawn from his duties. With the Church exploiting the resulting power vacuum, their music and partnership become weapons against threats to bards and nonhuman peoples.

Constable Tal Rufen investigates murders whose killers immediately take their own lives. His superiors dismiss the deaths of poor women, but the repeated pattern and strange weapons convince him that a larger magical threat lies behind them.
