The Seod Croi Chronicles is a young adult epic fantasy trilogy by S. Usher Evans. Princess Ayla is six weeks from taking her murdered father’s throne, but without the magical Pennlan stone, stolen by her fae stepmother, her reign may not last long. Her best friend Cade, a wizard apprentice, is sent to retrieve the stone from the dangerous fae realm, escorted by Ward, a knight eager to prove himself. Their journey takes a turn when a mysterious fae girl begins following them, insisting that the quest is based on a lie and that there is more to the king’s death than they have been told.
The trilogy spans three books published between 2022 and 2023, weaving together court politics, fae magic, and a quest narrative. A Quest of Blood and Stone won the 2022 Florida Author Project YA Book of the Year, making S. Usher Evans a two-time winner of that award.
