I love Green Rider by Kristen Britain. Karigan G’ladheon, a merchant’s daughter who dislikes nobles, was running away from school when she comes across a King’s Messenger who has been shot in the back by two black arrows. The messenger makes her swear that she’ll deliver the message to the King, as it’s a matter of life or death for the kingdom. She promises, and thus begins her journey into a world of magic she didn’t believe in while running away from dangers she had never known. The author makes you feel as if you were there. Britain’s experience as a ranger with the National Park Service is shown in the details and knowledge she uses as she describes Karigan as she tries to deliver the message while traveling through the country. This is a great book, but could be better on setting the foundation of the story for the books that follow in this series. However, it is a clean book, yet still captures the imagination and drama of a normal girl thrown into something unexpected.
These are the rest of her books as follows:
1998
2003
