The adventure continues in Book II of the Chronicles of the Secret Prince from award-winning author, MJ Bell.Deston Lespérance assumed that once he defied the odds and bested Grossard, the malicious solitary faerie who imprisoned his parents, he and his family would live happily-ever-after in the land of Tir na-nÓg. He wanted it so badly, it never occurred to him that dreams like that only happen in the movies and fairy tales. In the real world, the villain doesn't always die. Sometimes, like now, the villain returns with a vengeance and threatens to unleash a darkness that will destroy the fae and the high realm forever. Deston, being fully aware he barely made it out alive the last time he faced Grossard, isn't anxious to do it all again so soon, but evil and destiny waits for no one. So ready or not, he heads out on another epic adventure to locate and destroy the Shard of Erebus before Grossard and his new partner, Mordred, can find it. With only his dreams to guide him and Margaux to help figure out the clues, his challenge is extra daunting and the stakes are higher than ever. But even with that knowledge, he still has no idea the sacrifices he will be required to make. As Deston's world crumbles around him and his friends fall, the one glimmer of hope he hangs onto is that he does possess the fae powers and strength and that somehow he can become the hero the fae claim him to be.
