Rowan Winchester is the author of The Naviira Tales, a folkloric fantasy series exploring the enduring relationship between humanity and the Fae. She is a seeker of mysteries, and a lifelong devotee of myths, legends, and the unseen worlds hidden within them.
From an early age, she was captivated by stories of dragons, ancient magic, brave wanderers, and the enduring mysteries of the Fae. Those tales remained with her until, one day, she began weaving her own. Some readers even suspect that Rowan may have listened a little too closely to the whispers of the Otherworld and simply agreed to tell the stories she was given.
Together with her husband and her two rescue dogs, Nova and Gwyn, she lives in a small village in Germany. When not disappearing behind her laptop to explore hidden realms and forgotten lore, she can usually be found travelling to ancient sites, researching folklore, or following old stories wherever they choose to lead her.
She is the author of The Naviira Tales, a series of folkloric fantasy novels exploring the enduring bond between humanity and the Fae.
The Naviira Tales
A realm unseen. A legacy awakening. A war between light and illusion.
Step into a world where the Fae still walk, where Guardians hold the gates between realms, and where ancient songs stir fate back into motion.
A World Unseen
The Naviira Tales - Book I
Fantasy / Fae / Mythic Adventure
The world of humans and the world of the Fae have long been divided.
But the song has been sung, and fate begins to stir.
Cregann, Guardian of Jorygald, has sworn to protect his hidden Realm. Yet when a strange human girl, Ella, appears in the deep forest, he knows something ancient has awakened—something meant to stay forgotten.
Across the veils of Naviira, a force once sealed returns: the Mages' Order.
To stand against it, the Guardians must gather again.
With trusted allies, Cregann must journey through unseen lands, across thresholds of memory and myth—toward a fate that mirrors the past too closely for comfort.
Ella is not what she seems.
But neither is the truth they must face.
Old secrets rise.
And promises made in shadow do not stay buried forever.

Underworld Rising
The Naviira Tales - Book II
Fantasy / Realm-crossing / Ancestral Legacy
One more step through the watchtower, and Cregann will cross into a world he knows only through ruin—Terthian, where the echoes of battle still cling to the soil.
Ella and the remaining Guardians travel beside him, but the realm of humans is not as he remembers. Corruption spreads, yes—but so does resistance.
After a shattering betrayal from within, the fellowship must navigate not only the growing threat of the mages, but a deeper force—a radiant cruelty rising from the Dark Realms, twisting truth into poison. Even the dragons begin to fall silent.
As the Mages' Order aligns with the Saviors and war stirs on the horizon, the past threatens to repeat itself.
But this time, Ella must carry the legacy of her bloodline—and stand where her father once stood.
Only her light may mend what was severed.
And only together can Fae and human hope to reclaim the bridge between worlds.
