Welcome to Airdaeya

Step into a universe of boundless adventure, ancient secrets, and epic destinies. The Tales of Airdaeya Chronicles are the living heart of a new fantasy universe, a tapestry of interconnected sagas woven across multiple worlds, where magic, mystery, and memorable characters collide.

I’m K.T. Pike, and I’ve spent years building a universe where the ordinary can become extraordinary, and where the past always holds the key to the future. From adult epic fantasy to thrilling children’s mysteries, my stories are crafted to transport you to worlds of wonder and peril, and introduce you to characters you won’t soon forget.

Discover the World of Oram

The primary saga of the Tales of Airdaeya chronicles unfolds on the planet of Oram. Illuminated by three moons, this vibrant world is home to a rich mosaic of peoples—from the noble elves and steadfast dwarfs to the enigmatic danaash and the courageous abandi. Across one vast continent split by twin mountain ranges, a legacy spanning nearly 15,000 years waits to be discovered.

Whether you seek the high stakes of epic quests or the thrill of a good mystery, your journey through Oram begins here.

The Drakkaen Nakkla

Unearth a lost birthright tied to the World Burn War in this adult epic fantasy series. Journey with estranged twins, a silent monk, a fierce dwarf, and a party of adventurers as they unravel a shared history that could save their world—or shatter it.

The Valore Mysteries

Step back in time to meet a young Qrow (from The Drakkaen Nakkla) and his abandi friend Talim. In this children’s mystery series, the two orphans must use their wits to solve ghostly mysteries and face dangers in their peculiar town.

Thank you for visiting. I hope you’ll find a home in the Tales of Airdaeya.

I really enjoyed this one. The twin dynamic was emotional and compelling, and I was quickly invested in both Qrodin and Qat despite how different their lives turned out. The found-family vibe of the traveling party was a highlight for me, each character felt distinct and fun, with just enough mystery to keep me curious. There’s a great balance of action, heart, and world-building, and the story clearly sets up a much bigger journey ahead. A strong, engaging start that made me want to keep going.

I really enjoyed this as a opening chapter in the Drakkaen Nakkla series, it does an amazing job in keeping the reader invested and caring about the characters. I enjoyed going on this journey and thought it uses the fantasy adventure element that I was expecting from this type of book. The characters were so well done and can’t wait for more from them.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
