The Green Rider series begins with its title novel in 1998 and has grown to 10 books as of 2025. Karigan G’ladheon starts as a runaway school student who encounters a dying Green Rider and takes up his mission to deliver a message to the king. From that simple beginning, the series expands into a sprawling epic involving ancient magic, political intrigue, and threats that span time itself.

Key entries include First Rider’s Call (2003), which deepens the mythology of the Green Riders; Mirror Sight (2014), which sends Karigan into a dystopian future; and Winterlight (2021), which raises the stakes of the ongoing war. The series also includes shorter works like The Dream Gatherer (2018) and Spirit of the Wood (2023). Britain has maintained a consistent quality across the series despite long gaps between some volumes.
