(CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform April 7, 2014)
Would you choose to live in a beautiful prison? As the princess of Valmar, Gwendolyn lives in an island kingdom filled with lush forests, ancient castles, and magical beasts. What twelve-year old girl wouldn't want to dwell in such a place? Gwendolyn herself . . . for the island is also her prison. Conquered by an evil sorcerer-king named Skoll, she and her people must struggle to pay him tribute even as he plots her family's destruction. However, when she learns that she is heir to a strange, ancestral magic, everything begins to change. Accompanied by Aethelred, her younger brother, Gwendolyn sets out to forge an unlikely alliance with a hostile race of giants to reclaim her people's freedom. Along the way, she discovers a "peculiar treasure" that lies at the heart of Valmar's problems--but one that could also be its salvation.
