Book One: Birth of the Bluebird
Set in the 13th-century Anatolian Countryside, Aiyla Sultana gives birth to a beautiful baby girl during a battle with the Mongols. To save the baby's life, she is given up to be raised by the Bayat Tribe. The name Süreyya is given to her as her personality shines as brightly as its meaning.
Nineteen years later, this brave Turkish girl, devoted to her family and her faith, has the desire to be a fighter. Although she is trained to fight by the only father she has ever known, the head warrior of the tribe, females are not allowed to become warriors. Contrary to these expectations, she proves her bravery and fighting ability when bandits attack.
Her dreams seem to predict the future while she questions life and what is meant for her. Throughout this journey, a newly found love ignites a flame that becomes the source of her strength.
Book Two: Journey of the Blackbird
While the Mongol Clan strives to create a region of destruction, the Turkish Tribes suggest a plan for unity. During a brutal Anatolian winter, Süreyya and Emir nurture their love and savor their life in the Bayat Tribe. Their future is disrupted when circumstances and losses push Süreyya beyond her limits, leading her to places physically and mentally beyond her control. She becomes even more fearless as she defends herself and her loved ones while thrust into an unfamiliar world. When a new reality emerges, Süreyya evolves and becomes the person she needs to be to survive
