Arbria Owens has officially released her debut fantasy novel, Battle of Courts: Worlds Apart, a story set in the kingdom of Arden where political tension, ancient rivalries, and hidden betrayals threaten to unravel the fragile balance of power. The novel centers on Princess Serene Lyecraft, a leader forged by sacrifice and burdened by duty, who must make impossible decisions that could determine the survival of her people. As she uncovers corruption within the noble Houses and devastating truths about her own lineage, Serene faces a defining trial that questions whether justice demands mercy or death.
