FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Destiny Cycle Publishers Relaunch Epic Celtic‑Inspired Fantasy Series
Revised editions of Blades of Destiny and Stone of Destiny arrive alongside the new Heart of Destiny, expanding a mythic saga rooted in 5th‑century Ireland.
Destiny Cycle Publishers today announced the refreshed Destiny Cycle novel series—two revised editions and a new third volume—bringing sharper storytelling, deeper world‑building, and streamlined continuity to a cinematic, Celtic‑inspired epic saga.
Set in vividly realized 5th‑century Erin (Ireland), the series follows Breanna Ban Morna—a fierce warrior of Norse and Gael blood—chosen by the Tuatha Dé Danann to defend her people and land while confronting the costs of power, clan loyalty, and the Cycle of Time.
“Blades and Stone are tighter and more immersive, while Heart of Destiny raises the stakes in ways that test everything Breanna believes about fate and free will,” said author James Raquepau. “Special thanks to my editors, Holly and Sigrid, who made my storyline shine; my illustrator and artist, Nadiia, for the amazing covers in the Destiny Cycle Novel Series, and Toledo for composing my series soundtracks.”
